    That is not at all accurate. It’s unlimited miles, they charge for time. 75 minutes is $20 or $30 depending on the type of vehicle. A whole day is like $150.

    eg: https://www.homedepot.com/p/rental/load-n-go-truck-rental/316822131

      Damn, it’s been a minute since I looked into it but that’s a lot more than it used to be and even furthers the point.

        It’s literally less than you just said. $20 for a truck and no mileage charge.

          How is $150 for a day less than $30 + (60miles x .50¢ a mile)??? You would need to go 240 miles for that to be more which even in my state is further than the next nearest Home Depot.

            Since when are we talking about an entire day’s worth of hauling? People need a truck to pick up a TV or couch from Costco that takes well under 75 minutes.

              You didn’t answer my question. It doesn’t matter how long you have it that’s still more expensive than it used to be unless you can get your hauling done in less time than it takes to watch The Lion King. I’m not even sure what you’re trying to argue at this point.

      It’s actually a bargain.
