Save Big Bucks Renting A Car
Not all people have cars. Some people who own them find themselves in positions where they don't have access to their own car. Like, if you go on a vacation to Hawaii, you won't have your car. Tough luck. Sometimes people don't want to drive their own car on a long trip, if you catch the airlines just right, you can save money by flying, but you'll be without a car unless you rent one.
Consider this. You live in the suburbs. But the city is where you have your job. Your home is within a few blocks of the train station. Since you spend so much of your time at work, why have a car sitting in a paid parking space? The car isn't driven during the week days. Reserve Saturday for personal travel needs. On that day a car can be rented from a company like Dollar or Budget or Avis.
Return it on Sunday after riding around town, doing the shopping, even driving to a restaurant for dinner. That adds up to about $20 for all the necessary car use. Over the course of a year that's about $1040, a lot less than owning a car with all the associated costs. The car rental is a bargain.
Sure buying a car is the better idea if you use your car all the time. Owning a car can be terribly convenient or even a neccesity.
All the groceries may be too heavy to carry on a bus. You might need to run long distance errands quite often. That's the time to buy a car. But with a little planning there's no purchase necessary, just rent for the short term use.
Companies pay for each mile employees drive. It's up to over 50 cents each mile. If someone drives 100 miles that adds up to $50 each day.
A rental car really is a great way to save a lot of money. If you use them correctly. The biggest thing when renting a car versus buying a car is to understand that in many cases, you don't necessarily need your vehicle all the time.
Thus, if you only rented a vehicle when he needed it and avoided an expensive monthly payment for owning a your car, you would save hundreds a month, thousands a year. It really just boils down to how you use a car and the math of that usage.
Regardless of renting vs buying a car, being informed before making your buying decision will help. Keep your options open and be a smart consumer when it comes to big ticket purchases. You'll always come out ahead that way. - 21396
