Both cars in our Escondido rental fleet include 200 miles per day, so a car rental in Escondido, CA adds up fast: 3 days is 600 included miles. Past that, each extra mile is billed at the per-mile overage rate.
Key takeaways
- The 2022 Jeep Wagoneer and the 2022 GMC Terrain each include 200 miles per day.
- Included miles grow in a straight line with every rental day, so multiply the days by the daily allowance.
- Miles driven past the allowance are billed per mile at the overage rate listed for each car.
- Pickup and delivery details are confirmed on the booking page.
How many miles are included with each car?
Each car includes a fixed number of miles every rental day. The 2022 Jeep Wagoneer includes 200 miles per day at $119 a day. The 2022 GMC Terrain includes 200 miles per day at $89 a day.
The allowance is per day, not per trip. That means a long day of driving can be balanced by a lighter day. If you drive less on Monday, you have more room on Tuesday, as long as you look at the total across the rental.
Both cars carry a $250 deposit, which is a hold on your card and is separate from the rental total. The minimum age for both is 21. The table below puts the daily rate, deposit, included miles and overage for each car side by side.
| Car | Base rate | Deposit | Included miles | Each extra mile |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 Jeep Wagoneer | $119 per day; minimum 3 days | $250 | 200 a day | $0.25 |
| 2022 GMC Terrain | $89 per day; minimum 3 days | $250 | 200 a day | $0.25 |
Before you book, check the live figures in the table. They show the current numbers, so you can do your mileage math with the same data we use at the counter.
What happens if you drive past the included miles?
If you pass your total included miles, each extra mile is billed at the overage rate. For the Jeep Wagoneer that is $0.25 per mile, and for the GMC Terrain it is $0.25 per mile.
The overage only applies to miles beyond your allowance. Miles inside the allowance cost nothing extra. So the first step is always to count your included miles, then compare them to your plan.
The chart below lays out the decision as a simple flow. You either stay within the included miles and pay only the daily rate, or you go past them and the overage applies to the extra miles only.
A small overage is easy to absorb. A big one is worth planning around. If you think you will go well past your allowance, tell us when you book so you can choose the car and the number of days that fit.
How do the included miles add up over a longer rental?
Multiply the number of days by 200 miles. That is the whole formula for both cars. The numbers below show the 1 to 7 day totals.
- 1 day at 200 miles a day is 200 included miles.
- 2 days is 400 included miles.
- 3 days is 600 included miles.
- 4 days is 800 included miles.
- 5 days is 1000 included miles.
- 6 days is 1200 included miles.
- 7 days is 1400 included miles.
The allowance builds in step with the days you keep the car. Adding a day adds another 200 miles, so a slightly longer rental can cover a bigger plan without any overage.
The chart below follows the Jeep Wagoneer over 1 to 7 days.
Which car suits a longer day of driving?
Both cars include the same 200 miles a day and the same $0.25 overage, so mileage alone does not separate them. The choice comes down to the vehicle and the daily rate.
The 2022 Jeep Wagoneer is white and is $119 a day. It is the lower daily rate of the two, which leaves more of your budget for fuel and stops. If your plan has many miles each day, the lower rate helps keep the total down.
The 2022 GMC Terrain is also white and is $89 a day. It suits a renter who prefers a smaller SUV for the drive. The allowance and overage match the Wagoneer, so your mileage math does not change.

How do you plan a trip around the allowance?
Start with the days, then work toward the miles. A short plan beats a rough guess, and it keeps the overage off your bill.
- Count the days you will keep the car.
- Multiply the days by 200 to get your included miles.
- Estimate your total driving and compare it to that number.
- If you are over, add a day or plan fewer miles per day.
- Confirm pickup and delivery details on the booking page.
