Additionally, you don't have to live with a truck on a day-to-day basis, getting low MPG and driving a lumbering truck that is hard to park. You don't have to store it at your house. And you don't have to worry about maintaining it or washing it.

Unless you really need a truck, every day, I'd say you would be miles ahead just renting one.

My 2¢.
Does Enterprise rent trucks that can be used for towing with a Class 3 hitch? When I told U Haul I wanted to tow my car trailer, they told me I couldn't do it.

Another drawback to owning a truck is suddenly people come out of the woodwork asking you to help them move.
