Micro,
Save yourself some agita and get yourself a minivan. That's what my wife and I did in San Francisco in May. We used it to visit Napa with my brother, niece and nephew. Much easier than two cars and/or an SUV.
I don't know what kind of prices they charge in HI but you should be able to rent a minivan for about $90 per day. The price should drop considerably if you do a weekly rental. Also, always look for discount codes. If you're a member of AAA, make sure to use it to get a deeper discount. If you're not a member of AAA, become a member of Allied Business Network at because member become eligible for discounted car rentals.
(I recommend _everyone_ get a free membership with Allied Business Network. You can save lots of $$$ as a result)
Now, to make things even more confusing, you can also see how you do if you get the rental via your credit card web site. For example, if you have a Discover card, jump over to Shop Discover. You can get discounted car rentals _and_ deeper cashback bonuses, too.
And, to confuse you even more, shop around for the rental. Different locations have different rates. A rental done at the Airport might cost more or less than a rental from the same company but at a local location.
