Hey, guys. I have not been in here for awhile since Teaw is here in the US with me. But, at the moment she is in Buriram on her one month visit and I am heading over at the end of the week and we will return together near the end of March. But, what I wanted to know is if any of you that are either in Thailand or have rented cars over there know of some good car rental outfits that are reasonably priced. We are going to do some driving around this trip instead of hanging in the village and BKK all the time. I enjoy seeing her family but I can't sit around drinking coconut milk too many days or I get crazy to do something!!!! So Teaw suggested that I post in here to see if you have any leads on a good car rental there. Thanks!!

This thread has pretty much died since they gave us our own subforum under the regionals. You can find it here:

I've never rented a car there, but I don't think it's a problem. Might be tough in Buriram, but Udon Thani, or Ubon shouldn't be a problem.

I rented a car there ONCE and I would never do it again. I almost killed a guy on a motorbike. I can either drive on the left (UK) OR deal with crazy drivers (Mexico) but not both at the same time (Thailand). If you are going to rent one, don't use some small outfit--call Avis or on of the other big names and use some Platinum Mastercard for the insurance. Or--go Thai and rent a motorbike. I wouldn't drive one in Bangkok, but I think it would be fine out in the country.
