 | | Renting a Car in Dallas: Freedom to Roam the Range | | | Drivers wanting to rent a car in Dallas must be at least 25 years old. Some car rental companies allow younger drivers under the age of 21, but certain conditions will apply and they will often be charged more than older drivers. The driver's license must be valid for the entire rental period and shown at the time of the renting the vehicle. It must also be issued by the home country of the driver. Foreign drivers must show an International Driver's Permit. Additional drivers of the rental car must meet the same requirements as the main renter. They must also be there in person at the time of rental. Additional fees will be charged for additional drivers. Most car rental companies need a major credit card to rent a car.
All rental cars are inspected for any damage before leaving the rental premises. When it comes to gasoline, car rental companies usually offer two options: pay in advance or return the car with a full tank. If you choose to pay in advance you return the car with whatever gas is left in the tank. If you do not return the car with a full tank you will most likely be charged a large amount. Some car rental companies let the customer return the rental vehicle at a different location from where they originally rented it from. But be sure to ask beforehand because you may be charged extra for this service. Most of the major car rental companies offer customers a free pick-up or drop-off. Be sure to inquire about this service while filing out the rental papers. | | | |  | | |
