Every day? Long trips? Big errands for a couple of hours?
We have Zipcar. We like it - it means we can get rid of the car when we're through instead of taking it to an agency and checking it in. It also means that if, Gd forbid, there's an emergency, we can probably rent a car on moment's notice even at night. But it's not cost effective for errand in the city (car service costs less), nor does it make financial sense to use it for even a weekend. For that, we have a preferred rental agency.

If I needed a car everyday, though, I'd buy one.
