Believe it or not, the cost to rent just the couple of days is just as much, if not more, than the whole week. Plus, the time we'd need to take out of our trip to go get the car and bring it back, really cuts into our "Mouse" time.
If I'm putting out the $$ anyway, my hubby and I would prefer to just pick up/drop off the car at the airport. Then, if we decide to split up some of our free time, one "group" can take the car, the other the buses. My mom is coming with us again, so if she wanted to take my son back to the hotel using the bus, my hubs and I can linger around and take the car back. It actually opens up some options for us, too (now that I think about it).
I'm not really a "down to the minute" kind of planner, but I like to have a good idea of travel times, time going from the parking lot to the gate, wait times, etc. to help me understand how much time we'll likely have to spend and what attractions we'll be able to see/do.
We know we won't be able to do everything, so the more I know how much time we'll be spending on "busy" stuff, the better we can decide which attractions are important for us to see NOW and which ones will have to wait until next time. because there WILL be a next time!
