When shopping for a vehicle there's always a few things to consider. And while your budget and monthly payment are usually at the top of the list, the local area where you live, and work can also play a part when deciding what type of vehicle is best for you. If you live in a more rural area, you probably don’t find yourself often dealing with narrow streets or tight parking spots, however for urban commuters, it can be a part of daily life.

Savvy shoppers will tell you, buying a rental car has plenty of advantages. One of the top factors in making a vehicle purchase is price. Rental cars are often priced at a significant discount over a local dealership or car lot.

Since there's no need for markups, that savings gets passed onto the used car buyer, as the rental fleet needs to be continually refreshed.

Buying a vehicle for the first time may feel a little overwhelming with all the different options available and things to consider.

Beyond that, you may need additional cargo space for shopping trips, traveling, or outdoor family activities.
