Eva if y'all can afford to drive a rental in L V then good for y'all . to me if ya can afford to do that and pay all the B S parking fee's and tips It would Seem like it makes taking a cab to places in Las Vegas or on the Strip more reasonable and leave the car rental alone . now that said if you and Wolfgang are planing to go outside L V to some sight seeing then a car rental, tips and fees are just part of the deal when you are going on a trip like this .
