Rent a SUV for desert trip

I want to join a group of families going for a one day desert trip. It's a family event and the off-roading involved will be quite basic. Is there any rent a car firm which serve such customers? will the insurance cover such off road use of the vehicle? Could any of the off road enthusiasts here in ...

I approached some firms including Budget and as mentioned by choc they were all willing to let me have an "off roader" but no insurance.

I decided to borrow my friend's Pathfinder. Pathfinder doesn't have low range gearing. :cry:

Re: Test your I.Q and post your results :)

I fail to understand why an IQ test result is dignified with the word 'intelligence’. The whole concept of a 'general intelligence' is flawed. I have qualified to be mensa member by taking their test in the States but never bothered to be an active member. I speak from the perspective of someone who...
