The Ultimate Austin Road Trip Guide - Behind the Wheel of a Mustang

Few cities reward a scenic drive quite like Austin, and there's no better way to experience it than behind the wheel of a classic American icon. If you're planning an Austin road trip — or simply want to explore the city the right way — renting our Ford Mustang from Carriage and Cottage turns any outing into an adventure. From the winding hill country roads west of the city to the vibrant streets of downtown, a Mustang rental in Austin adds a little extra thrill to every mile. 

For visitors and locals alike searching for the best things to do in Austin by car, we recommend carving out a day for the Hill Country Loop — a scenic stretch through Dripping Springs and Wimberley known for its rolling landscapes and charming small-town stops. Closer to the city, a cruise down South Congress Avenue or along Lake Travis offers postcard-worthy views best enjoyed with the windows down. Our Mustang's performance and style make it equally at home on open highways and Austin's bustling downtown streets. 

Whatever your itinerary, Carriage and Cottage makes it easy to elevate your Austin road trip with a rental that matches the spirit of adventure. Book our Mustang and discover why the journey is just as important as the destination.
