We were in and out with a minimum of wasted time and the truck was exactly as described. The ONLY problems: the truck pulled to the right and the cab smelled slightly "fishy."

Good, straight forward. When I had a problem, the 24/7 roadside assist fixed me up, and they got me a new truck quickly--and helped me move my stuff from one to the other! Absolutely ALWAYS get the $0 liability--it is absolutely worth the relief you feel when something goes wrong.

We had a delay with the size truck not being there when we arrived for pickup, which ended up being about 50 mins. extra waiting -- and they were very apologetic, and offered a discount for the inconvenience. We had moving help coming so that was my greatest concern, and as it turned out, everyone arrived (truck and moving help) at just about the same time. So, I DO suggest arriving a bit early for your rental, in case of any snags. I did call the day before to confirm, but ours is a smaller town, so the one we would be renting had to come in back to back from another rental a good distance away. I know they want to make revenue, but such tight scheduling can cause a bit of stress for the next person in line. Just a suggestion for other people, and definitely NOT a detriment to our renting again, if ever needed. Truck ran okay, served our needs, all equipment asked for was there as requested. No hidden charges or fees -- all explained up front and total cost was exactly as quoted!

The truck had some good features and was easy to drive once you got used to the size of the truck. But, man, was it a turd going uphill. The governor kicked in around 75 mph, but as soon as you hit an incline, you’d find yourself barely able to do 40 in some cases. Then, everyone you whizzed by on the highway would go whizzin’ back by.

Nice truck, but someone needs to make sure the customer understands the need for the DEF on a long journey......it is rather important and we got terrible information, fortunately a kind trucker at truck stop answered a question about it....could have been a very costly repair job.

We had a fairly new, comfortable, 26 ft truck. The only things I would improve are the quality of the "blankets" we rented (actually pieces of felt fabric in poor condition with holes) & we had to provide our own straps & a lock for the truck. Wasn't told this before hand. It would also have been nice to have some instructions/tips about getting diesel for this truck ahead of time. Many places that advertise prices for diesel don't actually have it (BP stations) or don't have enough room to turn a large truck around. Figuring out the procedure for using the truck stops to refuel was an adventure for a first timer. Otherwise, the truck rode very comfortably & had plenty of wooden beams to strap our furniture to. The ramp worked well too.

Penske service was professional and great. The staff explained everything about the 26-foot truck, which was brand new by the way with only 1500 miles on it, and helped me connect the car hauler and load my car onto it when I was ready to leave town. The truck's ride was smooth and even had a Bluetooth-enabled radio which made the ride much easier for hearing my GPS and phone calls on the road.

Even though my order was erroneously canceled by someone, they found a truck for me in my area at the last minute and honored the original rental price, which was deeply discounted. My truck was new, clean and in great working condition. Drop off was even easier than pick up. Very pleased with my experience despite the initial hiccup. Penske is my new favorite truck rental company!

We were given a new truck (1200 miles on odometer at trip start). They left the window sticker in the glove box - interesting the truck list price was ~$34K (I always figured they cost a lot more than a car, but if the sticker was correct, it's about the same). We have rented similar 16 foot trucks 3 other times in the past 5 years. This one road like all the others - it was bumpy (conclusion - they keep their older trucks in as good as shape as the new ones, it's just that it's a truck....). Everything worked great. Handled well in awful driving rain through mountains. The only issue we had was in the pick-up at Home Depot. The person who checked us in did not understand how to use the computer for this purpose. It took a long time and he did not get it right. He forgot to give me back my drivers license; lucky my son noticed before we left. The next day I got a call asking when I was going to pick up the truck. I explained that I already had the truck and he was worried I had not paid. However, he figured it out and called back an hour later telling me we were all set. So all-in-all it worked out well. Overall, we were satisfied.

Did just great. They did not have the truck I ordered so I ended up with a 26' truck so I do not know how much better speed or gas mileage I might have gotten but we did great. Truck was clean and hearty through the mountains.
