Fetch your luggage, walk out of Stockton, CA Airport (SCK-Stockton Municipal), and collect your rental car. Which one you jump into depends on where you want to go. If you’ll be spending most of your time driving in downtown Stockton, around 5 miles from the terminal, choose something zippy and small. A compact car that’s easy to operate will be ideal for navigating those bustling city streets. But with a smorgasbord of things to see, like the scenic sandy shores of the surrounding area, you may want to make a few pit stops. A bigger vehicle, like a full-size car or an SUV, will make lengthier road trips a joy.
