Is AAMCAR Cheaper Than UBER?

Anyone who’s been to New York knows that every corner of the city has something new and exciting. Many people who visit New York believe that driving is not an option, and that New Yorkers only public transit or taxi. This may have been true in the past, but this is simply no longer. For a cheaper alternative to Uber and a more convenient and personal alternative to the subway, use AAMCAR, a car rental company.

Avoid Hidden Costs

It is affordable, without any hidden costs. Most car companies look affordable on the surface. That is until they slap you with hidden costs non included in the original quote. But with AAMCAR, what you see is what you pay.

With car sharing services such as Uber and Lyft sweeping the nation, it is easy to see how and why Americans are conflicted on how to get around. However, with AAMCAR, there is no question. Have the convenience of your own car to chauffeur you and your companions around on your own time to your own destination. Or use AAMCAR to move!

Uber cost vs. Car Rental cost

One of the first determining factors for weighing your cost savings for using Uber vs rental cars is considering the length of your stay. Is Uber cheaper than a taxi or renting a car? Do the math!
If you’re traveling for a full week, most people would say renting a car proves to be the cheapest option. Let’s look at the math…

Economy rental cars will typically cost between $45-65 per day and should fit two adults and two children. With these numbers in mind, you can expect to drop between $315-450 for a seven day trip.

Uber’s rates are going to be calculated by your mileage in motion, meaning if you just need a quick lift over a short distance, it’s a cost-efficient choice.

To put it into perspective, a 30 minute drive might not seem like much, but that 20 mile each way could end up costing you $40-50 there and back with a ride hailing service. If you times that by the number of days you’re staying to get your “per day Uber cost,” you might be better off just signing up for the rental.

Then there’s considering those extra charges. Do you have to tip your Uber driver?

That’s like asking if you have to tip a waitress. Technically, no, but it’s always a nice gesture as a thank you if your driver was accommodating and friendly.

Consider that when renting you still need to pay for gas as well as parking fees as well for wherever you visit. If the place you’re staying has free parking, that’s a plus, but you could always have to pay to park in a garage or have to deal with the fuss of going back to the car to feed a meter if you are parking in the city on your trip.

If you’re on vacation with your family too, consider how many passengers a ride hailer’s vehicle could hold verses a rental car.

Does Uber charge per person?

The answer is no, however, depending on the kind of car service you go with, the number of passengers varies. For example UberBLACK cars have a four person passenger limit.

If you have a full squad, renting a minivan might be the most convenient.

Keep an eye out for hidden rental car fees though as well, such as extra for returning the car to a different location, adding an additional driver, being under the age of 25, or going over your allotted miles.

Why AAMCAR?

There are a large range of vehicles offered by AAMCAR, depending on your needs and specifications. AAMCAR’s vehicle rentals include economy, compact, full size, mid-sized, minivans, cargo vans, SUVs, and moving vans. If one is more specifically interested in the car’s make, AAMCAR offers the Nissan Cube, Ford Mustang, Ford Explorer, and so many more.

Car Rental NYC Reviews

I needed a car rental in NYC for several different events. Since I am not currently employed, money is a big concern and I wanted to make sure that I could get a cheap car rental in Manhattan where I live. I found several, small local companies that rent all kinds of vehicles.

When I booked a compact car for the paltry price of $50 plus tax, I was speaking with the rental agent who told me that they also rent 15 Passenger vans. I have a family event coming up and to learn that I can rent a car in NYC especially a 7 passenger rental was excellent.
I can rent a car in NYC and take my family around with minimal hassle and everyone can be together in the same vehicle.

For my anniversary, I plan on getting a sports car rental in Manhattan and take the wife around the city.
I found that this company has cheap van rentals as well as cheap New York car rental.
I will definitely use them for all my car rental needs.”

New York City Car Rental Tips and Tricks

Months of September through mid-November are some of the best times to visit New York City.  In the city, there are deals on Broadway shows, hotels, lots of other fun activities.   How about your car rental?  We hear from many customers who are interested in renting cars to travel all over the state of New York.  They want to visit Niagara Falls, Adirondacks, Poconos, Boston, etc.  Here are some tips in helping you obtain the best deal for your money.

Avoid the airport.  Rentals from off-site locations are much cheaper than the ones at the airport.  If you prefer to pick-up the car at the airport, just speak with an off-site car rental company.  We spoke with Geoffrey Smith who rented a 15 Passenger van that was delivered to LaGuardia airport from a car rental company based out of the Upper West Side of Manhattan.  He said his rental came out to be $250 less than the cost of renting one at the airport location even with including the $60 delivery fee that the rental company charged to drop-off at the airport!  The van was delivered to the airport parking lot and he called the rental car agency after landing.  He was very happy with the service and since his communication with the company was via e-mail, there were no unexpected charges.   He was right.  We recently checked the “extra” charges at LGA airport for a one day rental of a compact car; it was an additional $13.66 per day!

Brand name car rental companies have to charge you the published rate so there is hardly any room for negotiation. In New York City, there are many local car rental companies that have lower operating costs so they typically charge 10 to 25 percent less than rentals from national agencies.

Check your credit card for insurance coverage for the rental vehicle.  Most major credit cards such as American Express, MasterCard, and Visa offer car rental insurance, which saves you an average of $9-$15 per day.  Depending on how long you rent, this can be a substantial saving.

If you own your own home, your liability policy should also cover you against third party loss or damage.  Once again, do your research by contacting your homeowner’s policy and verify if this is the case.  In addition, the Personal accident coverage which offers some medical coverage in the event of an accident is secondary to primary health insurance.  So if you have health insurance, you can decline to take the one offered by the car rental company thereby avoiding any additional charges for insurance.

Reserve the car for a longer period to get a lower rate.  This may sound absurd but most systems are set up to give you a discount the longer you rent.  Of course, you don’t have to keep the car for that period but you still pay the lower rate.  Last weekend, a compact car for a 4-day rental was $299.95 but $339.95 for a 7 day rental.  We kept the car for 6 days and got the best rate with a free upgrade.  Most times when you are dealing with a local car rental company, the best things to do is pick-up the phone and speak with an agent.  Good Luck!

Dodge Neon – NYC Auto Rental Fleet

The Dodge Neon is a fun and exciting car to drive thanks to plenty of interior space and a cool body design. When the Neon was first introduced in 1995 it broke new ground in the small car category. The Dodge Neon blasted through all of the believed small car design boundaries, creating a compact car with a spacious sedan-like interior. Driving performance in the Dodge Neon was also a cut above the competition giving this youthful car a snappy attitude. A more refined and sophisticated Dodge Neon was introduced in 2000, ushering in a new millennium of stylish small cars. The next generation of Dodge Neon New York car rentals were solid and sturdy, yet they were still able to radiate a fun and spunky attitude. AAMCAR Discount Car Rental is excited to offer the Dodge Neon as one of their top New York car rentals. This cute little car rental is perfect for couples or individuals planning a trip to the city, and even small families will enjoy the spacious interior of the manageable New York car rental.

The second generation Dodge Neon is a totally redesigned version of the original vehicle. Changes were made to the bodywork, the interior, the engine well, pretty much everything! Although the new Dodge Neon New York car rentals look similar to the older versions, there isn’t really anything the same on both vehicles, except for the ovoid headlamps. The front hood design has become more integrated while the rear tail-lamp design helps to accentuate the pronounced wheel-wells. In fact, the whole profile of the vehicle was revamped for the new millennium, giving the car a new aggressive cab-forward look. The new aerodynamics on this vehicle helped to repel water and wind noise providing a calm and quiet interior. This new body structure is also extremely rigid, creating a smooth and enjoyable New York car rental driving experience.

Inside the Dodge Neon New York car rental you’ll be surprised at how much room you’ll find. The larger cabin offers plenty of head and hip room for front passengers, while rear occupants benefit from increased shoulder and leg space. The dash and instrument panel design is also totally new and sporty. Standard features in the second generation Dodge Neon New York car rental include four cup holders, and an AM/FM/Cassette six speaker stereo. The Dodge Neon New York car rental is a great car rental for travellers looking to get a lot of vehicle for a little price!

The Dodge Neon New York car rental is a great vehicle to drive now that there is less wind noise and vibration. The second generation of Dodge Neon’s are now comparable to other heavy hitting small cars like the Honda Civic and Chevy Cavalier, often ranking above them in customer satisfaction and popularity. Overall ride quality was greatly improved on the new Dodge Neon thanks to specially designed independent front and rear suspension. The newly designed 4 cylinder engine is more powerful than previous motors, while a new air intake system helped make this New York car rental quicker and more efficient on the road. The brake system, timing belt cover and even the exhaust manifold were redesigned on this vehicle – this attention to detail helped make the Dodge Neon, quieter, quicker and even more fun to drive!

The Dodge Neon discount car rental is a great vehicle. The combination of a fun and flirty exterior, functional interior, and powerful engine make this New York car rental a real winner in the automotive world. With its smooth ride and exquisite handling, the Dodge Neon New York car rental is a great choice for all kinds of Big Apple travelers.
