Most car rental companies require you to return the car with a full tank of gas, which means you must fill up the tank before returning the car. Remember to keep the receipt for the last refueling.

Near the rental car company in the United States, there are many gas stations, and the prices will be much cheaper than the fuel you purchase at the rental car company, so there is no need to buy a full tank of gas.

I have heard many friends who have gone on Road trips in San Francisco and Los Angeles say that their cars were broken into and their luggage was stolen. In such a situation, should we first report to the police and then go to the car rental company to change the car? Is the car replacement free of charge? Does the theft and robbery insurance included when renting a car cover the loss, or do we need to purchase separate glass and tire insurance? We have driven in foreign countries many times before, but this is our first time in the United States, and we have never encountered a situation where our car was broken into. We are not sure how to handle it if it happens ? United States Q&A

The United States is very large, and every time you go somewhere it's different. This summer, I went to Yellowstone and chose an SUV, but I regretted it because the high center of gravity made it tilt heavily on the mountain roads... and all the roads were paved, so if you don't have a need for a lot of luggage, don't choose an SUV. Last year, I rented a BMW 4 Series to drive around the Grand Canyon area and it felt great. I stayed in Yellowstone for 5 days, 2 days at Old Faithful, 2 days at Canyon, and 1 day at Yellowstone Lake. The itinerary was not tight, so I just played around and drove all the roads in Yellowstone. Accommodation in Yellowstone is expensive, and the itinerary was not optimized, but the gas prices were cheaper than in the Bay Area. As for cash and credit cards, to be honest, I haven't used much cash in recent years. I only keep cash for tips. Throughout the trip, I only used cash once at a strange restaurant in Salt Lake City for one night, and also used cash to send postcards at the Yellowstone post office. Everything else was done with credit cards, including self-service gas and meals. It was surprising to find out at a gas station in Carson City that they explicitly did not accept VISA credit cards and had to use a MasterCard. I remembered trying credit cards at gas stations in Utah and San Diego last year, and this year's experience was really different, as many gas stations have upgraded ? United States Q&A
