These vehicles can easily squeeze within the limited parking spaces available within the city center as well as the downtown area.

However, if you intend to travel around the city outskirts and far-flung areas, then getting an economy rental would make a lot of sense.

As a general rule, avoid high speeds when the roads are slippery due to rain or ice.

  • Where are the best places to park in Gunnison?

    Finding parking in Gunnison city center can be a challenge thanks to the limited number of available parking lots. That said, you can try your luck in Downtown Gunnison where you are likely to find several metered parking.

Cons:

Kayak has earned my business for many years by making sure the quoted price wa accurate and incl all costs. I was quoted $367 for my car, received a Priceline confirmation at that price, but my rental agreement upon picking up the car was $441. After spending hours calling and getting the runaround on auto attendants and live support people who always blamed me or one of the other two parties (kayak, Priceline, Budget) I have no choice but to dispute the charges and never use Kayak or any other pricing engine. I’ll pay more to go direct.
