I think I used Paradise on St.T last Jan, for 30 days, around $40/day or around $1300 for the month. They were cheaper than others at the time of reservation. I have no idea where people find the $10/day cars, never see them. It was a small car but seated 4 of us. As to a jeep or a small sedan - on St. J, I learned a jeep would have been better. l learned this trying to negotiate an unhill hairpin turn and the car just stopped. It had power enough to smoke the tires, but it wouldn't go forward on too steep a road. This meant the jeeps and cars behind us had to back down around the turn so that I could take a faster run at the hill. All went fine after that. The only other wonderful experience was backing up on to the ferry with 4 people in the car. That was interesting, but we made it. I'll be renting a 4 door sedan again this coming Jan, because the times we needed a jeep were rare, and it was nice being able to lock the car up. Most jeeps are always open air.
