All it takes is money. You can get any size vehicle you want from
a rental company for as long as you want, if you're willing to
pay the fees. For something like a van or SUV you should
expect to pay in the $400/week range. Read the fine print
carefully for excess mileage changes. Insurance is also something
you will want to get straightened out in advance.
Another option you might consider if you have the time to futz
around with it is a short term commercial van lease. Might be
a lot cheaper, but probably more hassle. I don't know if they
will go as short as 6 weeks though.
If you really want to do the Ugly American thing in style though
you should consider renting a RV.

Also, gas prices will be approaching European levels in the USA this summer.
