    Any Idea where I could rent a car for prom in Oklahoma City?
    Ok so we were thinking a bout renting a limo, but instead we desided that it would be better to rent a nice car that we could keep all night. The problem with getting one from like enterprise or some company like that is that you might not get the car that you want. Any idea where I could get one. We're wanting some thing like a Escalade or a Chrystler 300. something fancy.

    If you are under 18 you probably can't Enterprise is the agency that has the most flexibility in renting to people under 21. Give them a try.

    Car rentals in Oklahoma City for a 18 year old?
    It is going to be my younger sister and me. I was hoping you could tell me a local car rental place that would rent to me. I know most places, you will have to be twenty-one, but I need the transportation.
    Renae says:
    No, most places won't let you rent a car unless you are 25. If they do let you rent one, you have to pay an arm and a leg.
