This is a great little car. No frills or intense technology you don’t know how to use. It gets great gas mileage and gets to to and from. The beach add on with Towels/Chairs and a Cooler is absolutely worth it if you’re going to the beach! Makes your life so much easier!! I would absolutely rent this car again!
