Your destination and the number of people that ARE accompanying you determine the type of car you should rent while in Whittier. If you intend to visit off-road destinations, intermediate SUVs will be a good car option for you. These cars can also accommodate a considerable number of people and more baggage. They are ideal if you are traveling in the company of your family, friends, or colleagues. If you are traveling alone with just one or two pieces of baggage, an economy car will be a good option for you. Nissan Versa is one of the economy car brands you will reliably get from any of the Whittier car rentals. On the other hand, Volkswagen Jetta is a reliable brand for intermediate SUVs.
Observe a speed limit of 25 mph any time you are driving your rental car within the school zones or within the central business district.

A speed limit of 55 mph is permissible on most of the highways within the city. On interstate highways, such as I-95, you can drive at a speed of 70 mph. The city has speed cameras all over to curb various traffic violations.

Pros:
NothingCons:
Service was horrible. I asked reserved a full size car. I was offered a choice of a commercial size van that had been side swiped and was damaged along the entire length of the vehicle or a Tahoe instead. He told me he was upgrading me at no cost and I was getting a deal. I told him I would not be able to park either vehicle. He didn’t bother getting out of his chair the entire time. The vehicles looked like rent a wrecks. Never again.10.0 Wonderful
