How many trucks are available for rental? Can every shipper get one? Can small shippers organize cooperatives to get access to them? Who's going to drive them?

- gruez 6y ago>How many trucks are available for rental? Can every shipper get one? Isn't the car rental industry in shambles due to covid-19? There's probably plenty of trucks (or similar vehicles such as SUVs/minivans) available for rent for cheap. >Can small shippers organize cooperatives to get access to them? Small shippers likely won't face issues with volume, and even if they do they can use their own personal vehicles. >Who's going to drive them? All the people unemployed from covid?

I've been renting a full size pickup truck from my local enterprise RAC for less than the price of their cheapest sedan over the last month, but my friends renting uhauls have had a lot of trouble getting them.
