Get your bags, exit Amarillo, TX Airport (AMA-Rick Husband Amarillo Intl.), and collect your rental car. Which one you hop into depends on where you’re headed. If you’ll be mostly driving in downtown Amarillo, around 7 miles from the terminal, consider something small and zippy. A compact car with good maneuverability will be perfect for those busy city streets. But with almost endless things to see, like the gorgeous sandy shores of the surrounding area, you’ll probably be racking up those miles. A larger vehicle, like an SUV or a full-size car, will make longer road trips more comfortable.
