for a long trip like mine (car pick up in Chicago airport and car return in Los Angeles airport) my suggestion is to rent a bigger car (like a jeep or similar) and not a compact one (they gave me a Nissan 'Versa')

If you're just going to be in the city near downtown, a car is going to be an expensive hassle. You'll need a car in the outer parts of the city or the suburbs.

Chicago is a top destination with plenty to offer visitors. Allow plenty of time if you’re driving at peak times or in inclement weather as traffic can significantly impact arrival times. Pay tolls in cash if possible, as paying these on phone or via website after was a bit of a hassle and took some time.
