Car or Suv rental from NY to Florida in the snow? -

I want to rent a car or suv from NY to Florida during December. Not sure about using a car up north because the cars don t have snow tires, as for Suv AWD I don t mind but now snow tires on those either, I don t think they can give you snow tires right? I would like to rent a car because it s cheaper, and they usually sometimes clear the highways, and I m only driving through snow until I get to I guess North Carolina?

There s no guarantee that there would even be snow in December. And if you plan on driving down I-95, there is no need for snow tires or AWD. Just get a car, you ll have to stop less to fuel up.

Hi. I get the impression you haven t spent much time in New York. It doesn t usually snow much in downstate NY in December, and when it does we have these things called snow plows that remove the snow from the road. Particularly on major highways, any car in reasonable shape will be fine. If you were planning to drive around on dirt roads in the Adirondacks I d suggest something with all-wheel drive, but not to drive down I-95.Also, although it is common to rent a car at one place in Florida and give it back somewhere else, that s not common elsewhere, and you will pay a large surcharge to return it in Florida. Hertz, for example, will charge about $600 for three days or $700 for a week for a car from NY to Miami.Since you can often find plane tickets from NY to Miami for $99, why would you want to drive?

definetly get an SUV if you plan on driving through the snow!!
