Renting a Tiny Car in Santo Domingo

I had quite the laugh the other day at the expense of a friend who rented a car for a month in Santo Domingo. He rented a small Kia Picante, a bright green one I might add.

I've seen these cars on the road before, but I guess I never took such a close look. Riding in one will definitely give you the opportunity to check out the car, and boy is it small.

The car was rented as a monthly rental for about $1,000 US. Why so much? Well, it seems insurance can be a bit steep. (If you've ever driven in the DR, you can understand why.)


Hey, but the Kia Picante did get him from point A to point B.
