If you have enough money to rent a full size vehicle you can do it at a full size car rental company. Managers will arrange all documents needed, and you can drive 'American folklore'. There are a lot of full size car rental companies, which offer a variety of full size cars. You may choose any auto you want from Chevrolet Impala to Ford Taurus or Buick Regal 4 door, or the like.

Let us begin from the definition of the term 'full size car'. This is an American term which means an automobile larger than a mid-size car, usually having a wheelbase greater than 2.79 meters. Also this car is greater than 3300 L of interior volume. Full size cars possess the following attributes: anti-lock brakes, cruise control, power locks/windows, air bags, automatic transmission, air conditioning, 4 or 6 cylinder engine, power-assist steering, tinted windows, dual mirrors, tilt steering wheel, and of course AM/FM stereo with cassette player. In Europe, executive and luxury cars often come within this category. These are mainly Audi A8, BMW 7-Series, Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Jaguar XJ etc.

Now you know what full size cars are, and we may proceed to a full size car rental scheme. First, you are sure to face an age limit at every full size rental. Age limitation may vary between eighteen and twenty-five, the latter being more typical. Some companies will charge an extra fee to those who are younger. Traditionally the government or military personnel are not subject to age limit in case the vehicle rented is used for business purposes. Similar exemption may be applied if you are a corporate employee and have an agreement with the rental company. Again, the rented car shall be used only in business. On the other hand, it is also possible for some car rental companies to have an upper age limit.

If other persons are to drive your full size you have to inform the rental company. You should ask managers about the sort of information or identification to be required from each additional driver. If other names are not stated in the contract you shouldn't let anyone else drive the car rented. If you do so the contract is considered null and void, as well as any protection or insurance purchased. If you are involved in an accident while driving a full size notify the car rental company and report all significant information about the people involved in the accident. And one more thing: if you want to save your money you may use rent full size discount coupons, which can be found in plenty when surfing car rental websites, or in newspapers.

Full size car rental companies offer different car classes of the category providing customers with transport facilities that fit their traveling needs best. Thus, there is great likelihood that full size rental is certainly what you have been looking for.
