Question on minimum age for rental cars in USA

score:8

Accepted answer

Unfortunately, yes, you will have problems with most large rental car companies. Accident risks for young drivers are significantly higher, so they either avoid the risk completely, or charge an arm and a leg if you are below 25.

Your best chances are to browse local companies; consider also companies that are not located at the airport. Paying a taxi to get there is annoying, but nearly always cheaper than paying the 'airport rental' fees, and many smaller companies have no presence at the airport to save cost.

Another tip: one-way rentals are sometimes a lot more expensive as they go by miles driven. If you see this, consider driving a one-way directly to LA, with a car change there for the rest of the trip (which is then a round-trip).
