What do you need to rent a car in California Desert?
Two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you opt out. Check with your supplier to avoid any issues.

Where can I find a California Desert car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some California Desert outlets will rent cars to drivers under 25, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do your homework. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
