Hi all,

I will be in Orlando from 26th March 2007 and i looking for a vehicle that will take 6 adults + 1 little one, but it must also have room for 4 large cases (the big jobs with wheels. It seems that there is not much between an SUV with room for the people but possibly not the cases or a 12 seat bus. Does anybody know of any suitable options? Perhaps something like a very big SUV? Would a Toyota Sienna do the job?

Thanks in anticipation

Read about this (http://www.forceprotection.net/video/cougar.swf) in the Sunday Times, don't know where you would hire it, but it may solve the problem [msnsmile][msncool]

Do they rent out Chevy Suburbans or GMC Yukons? One of these would certainly be big enough as they seat 8 and have a lot of trunk room besides. I'm thinking the Sienna just may not be big enough.

Have any of you folks hired a Dodge Ram 250 (8 seater i think)? Any comments regarding luggage capacity?


Many thanks

Hi Paul
We've been lucky enough to be upgraded from a Jeep to a Dodge RAM many times and for us two adults and two large kids, there is stacks of room for luggage. Good Luck - Sue

Thanks for the replies folks. I have ordered a Dodge Ram250 from the Dollar UK site. A bit difficult to find out much about a Dodge Ram 250 but the picture looked OK and the description said 8 + luggage so I guess it will be OK!

Remember you only need to drop luggage off, so a case on the knee for half an hour isn't too bad!!
