Now even before I attempt to configure my kit, I want to ensure that all the little things are done and booked. So with the car, I've chosen a compact and will insist on a Toyota Yaris or Corolla. I prefer a sedan over a hatchback be cause of equipment considerations. Out of sight out of curious minds; the last thing anyone needs is to see camera equipment exposed (excuse the bad pun).
As for the CDW (collision damage waiver), if you have a Gold or Platinum card from any of the three big credit card companies you'll be covered. Double check with you card company what they cover. In my case, American Express will bring it to zero deductible but, won't cover personal liability.
As for the hotel, try and get one with free WiFi cause you can do any online file back-up as a precaution if any of your hard drives fail. The hotel that I've booked is clean, cheerful, and safe plus it's close to all the major freeways. Always try and review if you can what other patrons have written about the hotel you're staying in.
The hotel I'm staying at is not like the Plaza nor the Wynn. The Highland Country Inn in Flagstaff received 3.5 to 4 star ratings out of 5 from most travelers. It has free WiFi, complimentary HBO, fridge and microwave. Since I'll be out for the majority of the time, the price is right.
