Among the most popular car rentals in Bend are economy cars, because they’re fuel-efficient and easy to drive both around town and longer distances to visit the surrounding cities and parks. However, if you plan to explore the more remote areas of the nearby mountains in the Cascade Mountain Range, an SUV or a pickup truck with 4WD is better equipped to handle these rugged terrains. Keep in mind that access to many of the remote trails in the surrounding areas requires a 4WD vehicle with high clearance.
Most of the rural highways surrounding Bend have a speed limit of 55mph. Speeds in most residential districts are limited to 25mph while business districts are often restricted to a maximum speed of 20mph. On the Bend Parkway (US-97) the posted speed limit is 45mph, but traffic usually travels at or above 55mph. Drivers should be aware that police officers are frequently stationed along the road to enforce the speed limit.
Most of the parking lots in Downtown Bend have metered spaces for about $1 per hour with a 4h time limit, Monday through Saturday. The downtown Centennial Garage offers free parking for 3h or around $1 per hour for all-day parking, and it’s free to park at the garage on the weekends. On-street parking is free throughout the city, but there is a 2h time limit. However, on the streets surrounding NW Congress St, on-street parking is metered at a $5 flat rate and is reserved for special events at Drake Park and the downtown area. Parking is free everywhere on Sundays and most major holidays.
The average gas price in Bend is C$ 5.15 per litre over the past 30 days. Filling up a gas tank costs between C$ 62 and C$ 82, depending on the car size.

When you book cheap rental cars in Bend, one of the things that you need to keep in mind is that reckless driving, which includes driving faulty cars deliberately and using electronics while driving, can also cause legal problems. It would be best to avoid all this and be on the right side of Bend’s department of vehicles laws.
Convertibles are more fuel efficient than sedans because they have less drag. It will therefore help you save on your money without compromising on the quality. The roads in Bend are winding and hilly, so a convertible is more fun to drive. The weather is usually sunny and dry, so you can enjoy the convertible top. However, it is important to also consider other priorities such as the number of people you are with and the nature of your visit to Bend.

Pros:
Drop off super easy because it’s such a small airportCons:
First, it was MY mistake by reserving a car at the OFF AIRPOT enterprise. The ON AIRPORT enterprise clerk was no help at all. Wouldnt call the offsite spot for us, wouldnt help us get a ride (Redmond has no shuttles) to the offsite location, looked at his cell phone while we talked to him instead of looking at us (and didnt even pretend) to care. Crummy attitude. If I were his boss I’d fire him.2.0 Poor

The car I booked was at a location that was closed. I was then sent to a location that was 20 miles away and did not have any available cars. Enterprise was not able to rent any vehicle.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
The vehicle has four tires and a steering wheelCons:
Not charged me more than my reservation with Kayak+ a two hundred dollar deposit, of which one was refunded at all. This is typical with enterprise. Despite no damage ever being done on my part to any enterprise vehicle I’ve never gotten my deposits Back, in anything enterprise always finds a way to charge me additional. As of now I have paid 305 dollars for a 36 hour rental which is criminal.2 locations in Bend
