Try to keep to the right side of the highway so as not to slow down traffic.
The Nashville region, including Clarksville, is known for having heavy traffic during rush hour, due to local residents driving to and from work. If you don’t want to get stuck in congestion, try to avoid highways 12, 76, 79, and 374 between the hours of 8am to 9am and 5pm to 6pm. During the winter months, there may be some snow and ice on the road, so always pay particular attention when driving.

A provider like Enterprise offers such a service. You can also rent a car from providers like Hertz, Avis, and Budget. Their offices are a short distance from L&N Train Station.

Pickup truck
I had a reservation to get the car at 10 am, when I got there they tried to give me a small SUV and not a pick up per my reservation. The Truck was not ready and had to be cleaned while I sat there for 50 mins. My reservation was confirmed at 8 am but the car wasn't then made ready for my pick up time. All the while the service rep, just kept telling me they cleaning it now, when I asked why it wasn't cleaned before I got there, he had no response. When I finally got in the truck, it was dirty in the inside, smelled as if someone smoked in it and from the cleaning the seats were wet leaving my pants when when I sat in the front seat. The whole ordeal left very upset and forced me to be an hour late for the appointment I was trying to get to, and pushed my entire trip back over three hours from the initial plan, becuase of one hour delay with not so much as an explanation as to why the truck was being cleaned when I got there verse prior to my arrival.

Pros:
Staff was very friendly
Cons:
The "no mask, no service" sign was a little off-putting. Some people have medical or mental conditions that prevent them from wearing a mask.
