I just rented an SUV to get us there too.
We were going to drive my car (Honda Civic) buuuuuuutttt.... we may need the extra space on the way back.
For one we promised my parents that all the stuff we left with them (like 10 boxes of books) would be out by Christmas. Then B's back is another concern. Locking him up in a Civic for 11 hours isn't fun for him.
Finally our luggage and any gifts we receive.
From researching i basically had to order it soon too. Most of the other rental places were sold out of their SUVs.
