Well that depends on where you’re going. Downtown Erie, about 6 miles from Erie, PA Airport (ERI-Erie Intl.), can be a little tricky to drive around. Make things easy by renting something compact, fuel-efficient, and a breeze to handle. Take into consideration that Erie is an excellent base to explore many of the rolling hills in Erie County. If your journey is more about steering down lengthy stretches of road, you may want something with a bit more trunk space and room to move around. How about an SUV or a full-size car?
