Rain, SNOW, Hail, safety for our van rentals

Chains, roadside assistance & travel time

Winter weather, spring storms, summer monsoons and fall flurries. Every season has its fair share of bad weather that drivers must brave. But if you’re driving a rental car in a city you’re not very familiar with, following a few simple rules of the road will be more important than ever. Here are some TIPS from BOOKVANS.COM:
In the Rain
  • Keep it slow. Even if roads don’t look that wet, you can’t play it safe enough. So instead of plowing along at the posted limit, take your foot off the gas a bit and travel at a safer pace.
  • Light your way. Make yourself even more visible by turning your lights on – showing fellow travelers where you are.
  • Give yourself room. Double your stopping distances and – while driving – leave extra room between yourself and the car ahead.
In the Snow
  • Beware the bridges (and overpasses). Both of these areas tend to freeze first, so slow down, keep your pace steady and don’t make any sudden changes in direction.
  • Clear your view. Thoroughly de-ice all of your windows before hitting the road. And after, be sure to use your defroster and windshield wipers to keep your windows clear.
  • Slow and go. Drive at a safe speed (generally less than the posted speed limit), but not so slow that your car will get stuck when driving in deeper snow.
  • Room a plenty. Same as with driving in the rain… give yourself lots of extra room to stop.
In the Fog
  • To the right, to the right. Keep your car in the right-hand lane… and keep your speed down (way down).
  • Light it up. Turn your low beams… or, if there’s a very thick fog, turn on your fog lights (just be sure to switch to your low beams once visibility increases).
  • No hugging. Don’t hug the bumper of the car in front of you. It won’t leave enough room for you to stop safely should the driver abruptly brake.
In High Winds
  • Be aware. Note the vehicles surrounding you. High winds can be bigger issues for trucks, buses, RVs and any vehicles towing trailers, so try to steer clear of these vehicles when the winds start whipping.
  • Slow it down. Reduce your speed and keep your hands on the wheel. And be especially mindful of when you’re entering/leaving an area protected from the winds – since this will certainly affect the way you drive.

The 15-passenger van

15 passenger van rental in New York City, Los Angeles, Las Vegas
Are you searching for an affordable, efficient, comfortable and convenient way to transport a large group of people and cargo around NYC? Great! BOOKVANS.COM and our top of the line Ford E-Series 350 XLT extended 15-passenger can help you. The Ford E-Series is one of the most reliable passenger vans available, not to mention one of our most requested rentals. The E-Series 350 XLT is perfect to make your upcoming group trip to the Big Apple a memorable success.

Make Your Move
What does it take to move a small army of people? It's simple. Just book a van now at bookvans.com.  
Bookvans.com Ford E-Series 15-passenger van rental in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and New York has a rugged 4.6-liter V8 engine measures up to any commuting task, producing 225 horsepower and roughly 286 pound-feet of torque. While it’s difficult to provide fuel estimated for this 15 passenger van rental New York (usage varies depending on the axle ratio), most drivers can expect an EPA-estimated 13 miles per gallon in the city and 16 miles per gallon on the highway (14 miles per gallon combined driving). Other mechanical features include a standard four-wheel antilock disc brake system and stability control. 
Compared to other vehicles in the 15-passenger van category, the E-350 XLT offers a number of unique advantages to NYC travelers. This includes a factory navigation system and plenty of interior storage compartments. 

Bookvans.com Comforts
The interior design of the E-350 15-passenger van rental New York City certainly is designed for hauling heavy cargo – whether it’s a team of basketball players, a film production crew and gear, or a shipment of home furnishings. It has a towing capacity of 10,000 pounds along with an impressive maximum payload of 4,050 pounds. While squeezing 15 fully-grown adults into the E-Series 350 model can be a tight fit, the interior cabin space is surprisingly roomy. Passengers sit relatively comfortably, enjoying standard entertainment features like a two-speaker AM/FM stereo with MP3 audio input. Power steering and a tilt steering wheel further enhance the comfort of the driver. There's also wifi!

Safety and Stability Are a Primary Concern
People who choose our 15-passenger van rental in Los Angeles, Las Vegas or New York aren’t just looking for value and efficiency. They’re in search of a vehicle that’s capable of transporting some very important cargo: people. With the E-Series 350 15-passenger van rental, drivers can rest assured knowing their cargo is in safe hands thanks to a number of unique safety features: take the standard Tire Pressure Monitoring System, for example. Normally, transporting heavy cargo can have a significant impact on your 15-passenger van rental's tire pressure, and traveling on underinflated tires requires more energy, fuel and control. As a result, not only would the tires wear more quickly, but they could also overheat. In extreme cases, overheating can lead to tread separation… and a terrible accident. With the E-Series 350 Tire Pressure Monitoring System, our 15-passenger van rental drivers can avoid such issues and easily keep an eye on their tire pressure, adjusting it whenever it falls to far below the recommended PSI rating.

Drive Smart with the E-350
Piloting an extended van rental can be tough if you’re not used to driving such a large vehicle. As such, you might find the handling to be a tad touchy the first few times behind the wheel of the E-350 15-passenger van rental. While the suspension handles the potholes and rough surfaces of New York’s roads quite well, the vehicle’s high center of gravity can cause some unexpected body roll. Luckily, one of the main Safety features on the 350 is the AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control (RSC). By reducing engine power and focusing on selective wheel braking, the RSC system helps the driver maintain control of the vehicle on a variety of road surfaces. Corner to quickly or swerve to avoid a hazard in the road, at the RSC will kick in and measure your vehicle roll and turning rate. With RSC, your vehicle will automatically adjust for the shifted weight distribution, applying the proper response to help you keep your vehicle under control.
Even then, drivers will want to be cautious when cornering in the vehicle. Tight braking helps to keep the vehicle firmly within the driver’s control. However, unexpected stops can have a significant impact on the vehicle’s handling abilities. 
The Ford E-Series has been a mainstay of the passenger van market for as long as we can remember. Reserve your 15 passenger van rental in New York today to see why so many travel groups depend on this vehicle for efficient, affordable and comfortable commuting.
