In my ignorant youth I rented a truck from them once, to move from one apartment to another. First of all we were stopped on a hill and the ramp at the back started rolling out into the windshield of the car behind us. Then, fortuately once we were all moved in, the truck broke down on the way back to the depot. We walked the last few blocks and handed them the keys, told them to go find their truck on the main street. It was a fiasco.Sparkling Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12799366562472325812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618685271512418876.post-79078808122426318352009-02-25T21:41:00.000-05:002009-02-25T21:41:00.000-05:00Bobbie, you're really an artist!

I can't imagine being broke down with all those people with you and not being able to find the U-haul place. I don't blame you for not wanting to direct the traffic. I would not do that either.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12078537002880283509noreply@blogger.com
