No prob, ask away

The reason I prefer a "mini 4x4" is really only for ground clearance to navigate a couple of spots. For example, the dirt road to Friar's Bay Beach Club typically has potholes deep enough to swallow a car. Otherwise, I agree with you, people generally don't need a 4x4 for most of the island. And I certainly don't need a full sized SUV or even a Jeep Cherokee ($$$).

We used to rent Suzuki Jimnys on SXM, and still do on St. Barts. Great cheap and durable for a hilly island with potholes and sometimes minor flooding. Don't know why they aren't more popular on SXM anymore, but I'm sure there's a reason.

With the Grand Case Airport pickup, Alain from Triple A has arranged that for us in the past, he just doesn't have these type of cars so I was looking around to check my options. I like using the local-owned car services, and actually discovered Triple A from this TTOL site, and used him for years since then. So thanks for that!
