It isn't going to be more comfortable, quieter and softer riding than a Chevrolet Tahoe though is it and it's likely you can rent one for the same money as an F150

I'd fly. Driving in 3-5 days means you are basically just going to drive straight there. It isnt enough time to explore some of the areas you'll drive through. There will be significant one-way fees.
Consider flying to Pheonix or Los Angeles and renting from there and then driving - shorter distance and the route covers more interesting scenery and is a better use of time.

Book UK to Los Angeles and then Florida to UK as one open-jaw return. This means with an airline that flies to both locations (Or has codeshare partners that do).
You can use Kayak for this, but the reality is you'll end up with somebody like Virgin Atlantic so check them direct too. It shouldn't be that expensive either do to this either.
Book the internal flight to Florida separately.
I tend to find the best prices 3-6 months before travel.

Use Virgin at that money, never buy something thats only just the better deal due to cashback as it's not guaranteed (Even though you almost always get it).
Exactly my experience. It went nuts price wise in March.
Put almost 4k on my rental 4k in 3 weeks? Lightweight...
Did over to 2000miles in a week on our Yellowstone trip
I kinda ran out of obvious places to include on the route
Exactly - what he didn't mention is that he lives in Alberta and presumably most of those miles were the journey to and from Yellowstone.
I covered 10,000 miles on my journey to and from where I drove around
Netflights use Alamo so it's the same product you'll get with Virgin or Alamo direct. But you won't fit two large suitcases in one.
I'd be questioning the 'Impala' from autoeurope. These firms often have out of date car classifications, the rate looks odd compared ot the other and the current generation Impala is a Premium at all major firms now - historically it was always a Fullsize/Standard. So I'd be doubtful you'll get something as big as an Impala at that rate.
The MKZ is the example car for the Luxury class at most agencies. There will be no more space available than a Premium. I always rent Luxury but only to improve the car quality, typically many of the luxury cars offered are actually smaller - I almost always end up with a Cadillac ATS which is a great car but is the size of a 3 Series rather than a proper luxury car.

This is not true, they have loads - but none of them are convertibles. The Chrysler 200 in his list is presumably the Fullsize Saloon category.
You won't be doing those drives in 14 hours or 10 hours because there is too much to see on the way. You'll do them over 2-4 days each.
Correct - the MKZ is a Luxury, as is the ATS. The Luxury class is a bit of a mess - it contains both traditionally full-size luxury cars and also smaller but more 'posh' cars. You also sometimes get allocated Premium Elite cars as well such as the BMW 3 Series.
There is usually a choice between cars in the Luxury category but not exactly huge.
The ATS is an excellent car and the only car I'd pick over it in this class is a CTS or an XTS (Both of which highlight how random Luxury is given all 3 of these cars are included in it, though the last two are comparatively rare).
Something fullsize - Chevrolet Malibu kinda thing. Perhaps the old model Impala which they still make and is total crap.
The convertible thing is fun once. It makes good holiday photos and it's cool to say you've driven a Mustang Cab down the Pacfic Coast Highway. I did it once, ticked the box and wouldn't rent one again - when the novelty wears off you'll find them fairly crap cars, they are very over-hyped. I now just rent Luxury each time because when covering big miles it's nice to have something well equipped and refined so you don't finish each day thinking you've been driving all day.
For a first trip though it's fun to do the Mustang thing.
Yes.
An average and generic sedan.
