the original purpose of a pick was to haul stuff. i want to haul dirt in a pickup for my yard and garden. all the pickups i see are for prissy people to go to the downtown hotel. what happens if i haul dirt, and leave some of it behind, along with a couple rake or shovel scratches from moving the stuff out of the truck. am i charged? i could just hose it down, but will still leave some marks and residue.

does the rental agency go ballistic, or do they just take it in stride?

in the dc area it is next to impossible to rent a pickup from uhaul.

i had a dump truck, which was great. insurance went over $100/year, and lisence was $180/year. i decided for the few times i need a truck, i would rent.
