Arlington is unusual among large American cities in having no public transit system at all. That single fact makes a vehicle essential here rather than convenient. The city sits midway between Dallas and Fort Worth and is home to two major stadiums and a theme park.
Rentals start from $29 a day, with owners setting their own daily, weekly and monthly rates. Event weekends at the stadiums price noticeably higher and book out early.
