That depends on where you’d like to go. Downtown Dothan, about 7 miles from Dothan, AL Airport (DHN-Dothan Regional), can be a little daunting to drive around. Make things easy by opting for something small, fuel-efficient, and a breeze to handle. Take into consideration that Dothan is a good base to explore many of the sandy shores in Alabama. If your vacation is more about tearing down the open road, then you may prefer something with a little more comfort and extra legroom. How about an SUV or a full-size car?
