I am on vacation in New York state for ten days starting Sept 28th.

Does anyone know if I can hire a V70XC  for a week? http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Nic,
     I believe that Hertz rents Volvos.  When travelling for
  for NBC these were available..Give it a shot.
      Beware the cabs.

Last time I checked with Hertz, it was around USD&#036;600 for a week. &nbsp;Check out their website&#33;&#33;

I checked out hertz.com, and see that i can choose from the following:
Hertz website has the following classifications:
Lincoln Town Car or Similar; Ford Explorer or Similar, Ford Escape or Similar, Ford Windstar or Similar, Ford Expedition or Similar
Apart from the Ford bit, I reciognise the Explorer, but the rest sound like they could be large enough to match an 18 wheeler&#33; http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif
For instance, what is a &#39;town car&#39;? this makes no sense to a mere Brit, and is a full size 4x4 like a Hummer ?

All I want to do is go upstate for a few days and get some scenic views.... ANyway, i have mailed Hertz, so should get a reply just after I come back (ouch &nbsp;http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/blush.gif ) I am thinking of asking for a NeverLost®, In-Car Navigation System do you think i could ask for one with a stiff upper lip British accent (Old Boy&#33http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

Here&#39;s the XC&#39;s description from Hertz.
It&#39;s listed under their Prestige Line and is only available in selected locations.
Hope this helps. http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
