""It's been a year and change... but the last two box truck rentals I needed ended up being Ryder 'city vans', Isuzu cabover diesels with an 18 foot box and a hydraulic lift. Uhaul was only able to offer an admittedly larger truck with greater capacity, but at a price not competitive with the Ryder. One went to San Antonio and back, the other to Kalamazoo and back, both to pick up and bring back 1800 pounds of broadcast transmitter.
Why is it that (apparently) Ryder is the only outfit offering the Isuzu boxes? They're nicle little trucks. Only concern I had was the BWD sometimes reloctaes and knocks the shifter into neutral requiring a return to D and resetting the cruise contriol.

We rent 10, 14, 17, 20 and 26 ft trucks. We try to stay with domestic chassis and also have some concerns whether customers will feel comfortable in cab forward trucks. We only rent gasoline powered units and even though Isuzu builds great trucks, the gasoline version availability has been spotty and the maintenance costs are high. It's an interesting business to say the least !
