    I am looking for a 4×4 in good shape to rent for 3-4 months at the beginning of next year. Anyone know a good source either private or via a car rental company. The few car rental companies I have looked at were very expensive. More than $5k.

    Thank you.

    Plasticbrad, I might be able to help. Please ask Scott to send me your e-mail address.

    I had a nasty experience with one of the small 4 by 4 (rent-a) companies in the past when trying to save a few bucks. I’d stick to either a private deal or the big companies even if it costs more.

    Ditto that ssure. Also had a major problem with a small 4×4 rental company out of Grecia run by an American. 10 year old rig, suspension was shot, no A/C, window seals gone (interior dust cloud) and had to purchase a new battery for it, which I was reimbursed for. I reiterate the same – stick with the major companies, including the local Poas or ToyotaRents or a private deal. If you have not figured it out plasticbrad, cars are ridiculously expensive in CR, primarily due to taxation and tariffs.

    Yeah I know about the costs. I have a ’92 Honda Accord and besides it costing $4k it seems like every month I have it in the shop…lol

    I just need a more dependable solution for my wife when she is down here. She would kill me if she had to drive my car.
