Just wait til Obama is elected and gouges all your profits and redistributes them to the working class through unemployment and welfare.<BR/><BR/>Now, back to the subject...<BR/><BR/>They're going to be flying down the street even faster to return them if they're renting trucks from another facility versus the one where they're taking their storage items to.<BR/><BR/>I'm impressed that you're able to ascertain that more convenient truck rental options won't cut down on SUV purchases. I suppose Zip cars hasn't cut down on car purchases in general, huh? The fact is, transportation is about convenience. That's why Zip works, they're pervasive in Boston, so they're convenient. So, it doesn't matter that there are 4 other rental options. People prefer them to be where they need them, in this case at the storage facility.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11031470.post-88181089110793152072008-07-14T20:14:00.000-04:002008-07-14T20:14:00.000-04:00What is the difference between posting anon and us...What is the difference between posting anon and using the initials t.s.?<BR/>Not the same anonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11031470.post-29684864747440116022008-07-14T00:15:00.000-04:002008-07-14T00:15:00.000-04:00There are plenty already:Budget: 95 Brighton Ave, ...There are plenty already:<BR/><BR/>Budget: 95 Brighton Ave, Allston<BR/>Penske: 25 Denby Rd., Allston<BR/>U-Save: 25 Harvard Ave, Allston<BR/>U-Haul: 240 N. Beacon St, Brighton<BR/><BR/>The LAST thing we need are people with little to no experience flying down the Lincoln St. straightaway in trucks trying to get them back on time. I'm also pretty sure that allowing for more rental trucks is NOT going to cut down on SUV ownership, either.<BR/><BR/>The tone of your post and "anonymous" ID give the appearance of someone posting on behalf of the Public Storage Company.tsylviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08752504475583543161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11031470.post-33469587043830623642008-07-13T04:44:00.000-04:002008-07-13T04:44:00.000-04:00I'd say rental trucks are a good idea.

Renting a truck is the most logical argument against individuals thinking they need to buy an SUV for the handful of trips that might require the capacity a truck offers.<BR/><BR/>It seems only natural that a storage facility would offer truck rental. Presumably people are hauling things to store there. What's more efficient for fuel and traffic purposes, 2-3 trips with a smaller capacity car, or 1 single trip with a truck?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
