    Update; I have spoken with him on the phone and we are working on the 'brother truckers reaching out at the moment'.

    There is also a Ryder rental on Hwy 165 just south of the interstate about 5 or 6 blocks. Its right behind the Burger King.

    Also, there is another truck rental place (Scott Leasing) on 165 north just one block north of the interstate.

    Hwy 165 is exit 118...

    No outcome just yet. Still working on some possible solutions. Why does everything happen on a weekend in this business? Still looking for ideas in case the other solutions don't work out.

    Oh, great idea! Got to see how it performs under load and 'real world' conditions, right? :)

    If worse come to worse, you might try giving customer service a call & they may have someone run up & rent you one. I mean its worth a try if you are really in a pinch. It certainly wont hurt to try.
