Rental cars that 2 people can sleep in

Kia Sedona, or a Chev Lumina/Omega wagon, or?

My GF and I are going to the USA in Sept/Oct 2011. We like natural scenery, and our plan is to fly into LA, rent a car and make our way to Los Vegas via as many National Parks as we can fit in. We will be in USA for about 6 weeks.

We do a lot of backpacking and camping here in Australia, and want to rent a station wagon big enough for the 2 of us to sleep in. We will be using hostels and hotels as well. We will not have much stuff- basically a back-pack each.

We have looked at renting RV’s and campers, but we really want to keep it simple, and they look over priced, especially as they seem to come with mileage costs.

The vehicle I was thinking of was a Kia Sedona (they call them Kia Carnival here). Or maybe a Chev Lumina/Omega wagon. Are these vehicles big enough to sleep in with the rear seats folded down? Any other vehicle recommendations? Can they be rented? Any suggestions on rental companies?

All help will be most appreciated!

Whenever I need to rent a car in USA, usually book with http://www.usacarsrental.com as they have vast variety of cars to select from and the prices are very reasonable. You may check out with them if they have any good options for you.

Thanks Lexie. The site looks OK, although no wagons... Reply to this
