KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Mission

  • Mission car rentals are one of the most convenient ways of getting around the city center and for regular transportation outside the city center. Public transportation in Mission is spotty, while the regular bus routes do not cover some destinations, making Mission car rentals a preferable option for getting around the city. Mission car rentals will help you travel more comfortably and faster when exploring destinations like Bentsen Rio Grande Valley State Park.
  • Passengers flying to Mission will most probably arrive at McAllen Miller International Airport (MFE). It is about 8 miles from Mission city center by car and hosts several international car rental companies. Budget has a car rental facility near the airport and offers free transportation to the off-airport facility. Other companies you will find at the airport include Thrifty, Payless, Enterprise, National, Dollar, Avis, and Hertz. We recommend making a reservation in advance to ensure you land your preferred car rental as this is a very popular rental location in Mission.
  • While driving around Mission is relatively easy, there are a few tips you should note before getting behind the wheel of car rentals in Mission. Some streets in Mission experience heavy traffic during rush hours. Congestion is usually worse in the streets around the city center, especially on N Conway Avenue. The rush hours are usually from around 7 am to 9 am and from 4 pm to 6 pm.
  • We recommend observing traffic rules and regulations when driving car rentals in the Mission city center. Downtown Mission has some one-way streets that have changes in directions. Navigating some of the intersections in Mission may also be a little confusing, especially for visitors.  However, visitors can customize car rentals in Mission with GPS to enable them to navigate the streets smoothly. You will also likely come across several cyclists on the roads, so be keen to avoid knocking down cyclists.
  • Book your car hire in Mission at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Standard hire cars in Mission are around 39% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Mission?

    The type of car you’ll go for will largely depend on your purpose of visit and the number of passengers. If you’re visiting Mission with a group, an SUV or van rental would be ideal. An SUV or van can comfortably accommodate all the members and still have plenty of cargo space. A compact car rental would be convenient for adventures within the city center as you can easily squeeze them into the in-demand parking lots downtown. Those visiting for off-road activities outside the city should consider taking a four-wheel drive. These are more equipped to handle rugged terrains.

  • What’s the speed limit in Mission?

    Adhering to the speed limits when driving car rentals in Mission is one of the key aspects you must observe. Speed limits in Mission vary, with the speed limit on all the streets within the city set at 30 mph unless there are other signs displaying other speeds. The city also prohibits driving at very low speeds that can block or impede reasonable and normal traffic flow. Very low speeds are only allowed when they are in compliance with the law and are a requirement for safe operation. The State of Texas allows drivers to go up to around 70 mph on rural interstates and 75 mph on urban interstates.

  • Where are the best places to park in Mission?

    Finding parking lots within Mission city center can be difficult at times, due to the high number of vehicles compared to the limited parking spaces. Downtown Mission has few free lots and metered parking spaces. However, the city prohibits parking on the streets between 6 pm and 6 am, so ensure you don’t leave your Mission car rental on the on-street lots during this time. Some of the affordable parking options near E Street in Mission are Vally Park USA on 721 W Joe Pate Blvd and Nafta Parking Services on 2601 Military Highway. Those looking for convenient Long Term Parking options should consider the ones at MFE.

I liked everything about my experience with Enterprise. The thing that stood out the most was the agent...Melanie was very courteous and patient with my dilemma and went out of her way to make it as smooth as possible and she totally succeeded. I am very happy with the end result and would definitely use Enterprise again.

Drop off was terrible. No signs at the drop off location - had to ask Marriott security guard and was directed to drive to the lowest level of parking garage. There was signs down there. We parked into stall #1 and it said to make note of mileage and gas gauge which we did but no drop off key area, no attendant, and no directions on where to go. We went back to the Marriott lobby and asked another security guard where to go. He took us to a locked Hertz door at the bottom of the escalator that had no drop box or directions as to what to do. There was a phone number but it just rang - there was no way to leave a message or any voice message stating what to do. We had to catch our flight which was a total mistake on your part which I will explain also. We ended up giving the keys to the security guard and he said that he would submit them but not sure when as this was 6pm at night so he most likely does not work again until pm shift today. Once we were at the airport, I did report to Hertz about all of the above and noted the car was there on time, the mileage, and full tank of gas. The car was not dirty, but there was a receipt from the previous renter and used napkins, so not thoroughly cleaned as they state will be done. I was charged another $200 and $100 fee besides the original $114.86 for the rental. Hertz did contact me right away today regarding my comment that I sent them and we are working on the rental solution and credit for the $300. The other situation that I was not happy with was before I processed this rental I phoned and spoke to a person via the phone and specifically asked if this drop off location had an airport shuttle, as that is the only reason we rented the car. We rented the car in McAllen which is close to our home and had to get a flight from San Antonio that same day so used the rental car to drive to San Antonio for our flight. I had asked the person before renting the car through you if this was a location near the airport and if they had airport shuttle and was assured it was. Neither was correct. We had to get an uber that cost another $20 and almost missed our flight with all the mix ups and running around. Not a good experience AT ALL!!

Pros:

Staff was great at pick up. Vehicle was small an uncomfortable. Biggest problem is they are trying to bill me for more than 2x the rate I was quoted. I booked through Kayak, reservation confirmation came from Priceline, price was honored when I picked up the car and now they are trying to gouge me for a much higher fee. Seems super shady to me. I'm currently disputing the charge and they say it needs to be reviewed and will take 5-7 days. I'm very irritated about it. I only had the car 4 days and they are trying to charge more than $1200.

Cons:

Would have been satisfaction if they would honor the rate quoted.

On our travel day we were notified our reservation would likely not be honored and we were on a waitlist. Other companies had no cars available, so the situation seemed dire. When we arrived, the staff was understanding and, fortunately, our reservation was honored, but with a different category vehicle - no biggie. Avis and Payless are one company, and it seemed that the Payless cars are “retired” Avis cars, since the car’s interior was a bit worn and torn. Staff was great!
