Picking up the car in Orlando 8th April and returning the car in Vegas 26th June.

Many thanks
Wow, I don't think there's a reasonable way for 3 months, across the country! A quick search shows ~$3000 for an intermediate. If you pick-up off airport in Orlando, you can get it down a few hundred by not paying airport taxes.

I would look into buying a used car & selling it in LAS area. Typical credit cards don't cover insurance over 30 days anyway, so they most likely won't cover you on a rental, so having insurance on your "purchased" car won't really be an extra cost.
