A lot of major Amtrak markets have Zipcar rentals available nearby. Has anyone here ever used the Zipcar for their "rental" while travelling by Amtrak? How has it worked for you? It looks reasonable for short car usage - ie: if you're only going to use it for a couple of hours here and there. The daily rate only includes up to 180 miles with a pretty hefty overage charge. I suppose if you're going to DC and you wanted to tool around a bit in a Mercedes C-class for $15/hr between transfers, it would be way fun (note: $60 annual fee plus $25 application fee - a one time fee that would probably equal to at least a day in regular rental fees).
