There are many solutions for getting a car. If your kids want you to have a car only for weekends getaways so you don't need a car for the rest of the week, it's a waste of money to own one in the city.
there are many car rental companies in the area and you can rent one in really good prices.
i recommend to rent a car at Prestige cause i had good experience with them, but you can choose whatever company that is close to your house. you can check their prices here [url=http://prestigecarrentalnyc.com/van-rental/minivan-rental-nyc/]Minivan Rental in NYC[/url]

Prestige is actually the worst car rental agency in new york:

Prestige Car Rental - Midtown East - New York, NY | Yelp
Prestige Car Rental - Manhattan Valley - New York, NY | Yelp

From what I hear they hit you with mystery credit card fees weeks after your transaction that you're stuck disputing and they fake scratches on the cars to hit you with penalties. And that's assuming that the car you reserved or paid for is actually there and actually runs properly, which is also unlikely

If you need to rent a car then go with a reputable company (Avis, Budget, Enterprise, etc...) or one of those short term rental places like zipcar or hertz connect
