You have been in love for a long time with the all-American classic Ford Thunderbird. You may have been dreaming about cruising on the strip of Las Vegas with your girlfriend in your arms. You have done your homework, put the pictures on the wall, saved enough money, and planned for the trip. But sometimes reality does not go along with us, it is either we need to spend a lot more money than what you have or that your best friend and his girl also want to go cruising with you and you just can’t say no. What a bummer, right?
Wrong.
Car rentals in Las Vegas abound that offer sports and classic car models for you to take on the road. And of course if you want a Thunderbird that seats four people (you and your girl with your bestfriend and his), then you have got to go rent the 1960 Ford Thunderbird.
The 1960 Ford Thunderbird was part of the second generation automobiles introduced first in 1958 as a four-seater car. This four-seat Thunderbird was designed with unibody construction abandoning a separate chassis. The purpose was to allow the maximum interior space in a small exterior package.
The new Thunderbird got the Motortrend’s Car of the Year Award for its debut season. Though many fans of the earlier two-seat Thunderbird were not that glad about its new direction, sales doubled more than the previous year. This, despite losing three months to production and 1958 being a very low year for car sales.
The 1960 Thunderbird had no mechanical changes, having only a few styling differences by adding the vertical hash-marks added to rear fenders, six taillights instead of four, a square-mesh grille with full-width horizontal bars, and a “Thunderbird” script on the door projectile.
On its emblems and ornaments, there were changes but still minor. Added were a standard rectangular outside mirror, door handles that blended more closely with the upper belt molding and door trims that were changed to incorporate a built-in armrest. The 1960 model also used stainless-steel components and there were even two cars that were made entirely of stainless steel by one of Ford’s suppliers, Allegheny-Ludlum Steel Corporation.
The 1960 Ford Thunderbird, in all its muscle and American stylings, can be taken for a cruise down the Vegas dirt road or even for just a night out on the strip. The four-seater that it is, you can either enjoy a duo or with the company of friends.
So if you find your best friend and his girl jumping in on your trip, thus potentially ruining your plan, don’t despair just now. You can still ride one of the great all-American classic cars with your girl and of course your best friend and his girl. Las Vegas car rentals are here to save your day. With a classic car as your ride, double dates are a piece of cake.

When searching for a vacation or even a short time get away, there’s lots of talk about “Vacation Packages.” These vacation packages are available for almost any popular destination including Florida, Disney and other Entertainment type resorts, cities like Las Vegas, shipboard Caribbean Cruising, Hawaii, and even Europe. Still, what exactly is a vacation package.
There are many types of travel packages available with some handling all the details down to meals and tips. Trip packages can be either basic or comprehensive depending on the offering. Let’s look at the most basic packaging with the understanding that some provide a much more comprehensive offer.
Most trip packages include 3 basic items. Travel or airfare to and from the destination, transportation while visiting and the hotel. Just these 3 items however have a wide variety of options that may be offered. Some packaged vacations have transportation to and from the hotel via bus with hotel transportation provided around town. Others simply offer a discounted rental car. The value in these types of vacations is in the convenience, the extras that may be offered, and the pricing.
Pricing of a package is based on time of year and the ability of the travel agency or travel group to obtain discounts. These discounts are offered to increase visitors to the destination. So a hotel, in a slow season may offer discounts of 30-50% or more depending on the days visiting. This is then coupled with a discounted airfare obtained through a consolidator. A consolidator is simply a company that commits to buying a certain number of seats on commercial flights. Due to the bulk purchase, they’re able to lower the cost per seat.
The convenience factor shouldn’t be ignored however. A vacation package allows you to spend your time planning your vacation instead of trying to find the best price on airline tickets and then the hotel and then the transportation details. A quick look through the package offerings and the major details of your vacation can be completed.
Lastly, travel packages often have a number of discounts or perks included. A Las Vegas hotel may offer a free dinner at their top restaurant. Entertainment destinations may offer souvenirs or extended times to visit. Many all inclusive packages may also offer information and discounts on popular attractions around town when you visit. Cruise ships may offer a welcome picture or other momento.
All in all, a travel package can be a good deal. The savings and convenience factors allow you to spend your time planning to enjoy a vacation instead of worrying about the travel details. Vacation packages can be a great way to save money.
