We’ve now rented for three straight months from Broden, choosing multiple vehicles. He has always been extremely responsive and made our experience smooth. He has some of the best vehicles available and at a very reasonable price. We tried to rent from another listing this past week after returning our last vehicle to Broden, and immediately had to contact Turo to have them cancel the reservation due to major mechanical issues. Broden keeps up on his mechanical services, that added Rocket Car Wash unlimited pass is a really nice bonus, and pickup and drop off are so convenient. We just booked our 4th month and 3rd vehicle today with Broden.

Clint was an outstanding host from start to finish! The entire rental process was incredibly easy, smooth, and stress-free. He was friendly, responsive, and very accommodating, making sure everything was clear and convenient throughout the trip. The truck itself was excellent—clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. It was spotless when I picked it up and performed flawlessly the entire time. I took it on a longer trip and had absolutely zero issues. The ride was comfortable, reliable, and handled everything I needed with ease. If you’re looking for a five-star experience all around, book with this host!!! I will absolutely rent from him again in the future! Thank you!!

The option of Renting this Nissan Frontier pick up truck appeared at first glance like an “anxiety-reducing opportunity”, and here’s the reason why: -Pretty much all of the other trucks of the same type (with the oversized compartment in the back) are advertising for over $200 at the minimum, and quite often for just 24 hours. -In addition to the relief I felt as I noticed that this one was reasonably priced, the pick up location came as an unexpected bonus. Basically, there are a great number of car dealerships, most if not all, located one next to the other, occupying about a mile-long segment of the main road connecting Colma and Daly City called Serramonte Blvd. Thus, after dropping my car at the Volkswagen dealership on Serramonte blvd, being able to access this rental, located only about a mile away was a pleasant surprise. Especially when you combine that with the affordable price. - Lastly, the communication with the truck owner was easy and the details provided were quite thorough; which altogether made for an “anxiety-reducing” experience overall😀👍🙏. Thank you again for making the rental process of your Frontier, as simple and stress-free as it can be. Kel F, PharmD

This truck is awesome. It has a super strong and smooth running engine. All the working areas of the truck such as the tie downs in the bed are in great condition, which was super important for me. 👍👍 used for hauling machinery. The bed is in good shape not torn up like most rental trucks. Made it easy to sweep out. You will love driving this truck if visibility is important to you, it’s a lot better than a comparable sized van lol. While trucking around 😎 I loved the sound system, worked great with charging my phone and playing music. The check in and experience with Nesha was excellent. The price was significantly better and I enjoyed this truck much more than any truck I’ve gotten from THD, Lowes or Enterprise and this year was a BIG YEAR for trucks and vans ✌️

The region offers everything from world-class skiing and hiking to fossil hunting and stargazing opportunities. A truck enhances your Alberta adventure by providing the capability to access remote locations, carry camping equipment, and navigate mountain roads with ease. Whether you're heading to Banff National Park, exploring historic sites, or venturing into untouched wilderness, having reliable transportation opens up endless possibilities for unforgettable experiences.


Banff National Park mountain adventures

Banff National Park stands as one of Canada's most spectacular natural treasures, featuring towering peaks, pristine lakes, and abundant wildlife. The park offers countless hiking trails, scenic drives, and outdoor activities throughout the year. Lake Louise and Moraine Lake showcase stunning turquoise waters surrounded by snow-capped mountains, while the town of Banff provides charming accommodations and dining options. Driving a truck through the park allows you to carry hiking gear, camping supplies, and photography equipment while enjoying elevated views of the dramatic landscape. The vehicle's robust construction handles mountain roads confidently, ensuring you can explore even the more remote areas of this UNESCO World Heritage site safely.


Drumheller's fascinating badlands terrain

The otherworldly landscape of Drumheller transports visitors back millions of years through its unique geological formations and rich fossil deposits. This region features dramatic hoodoos, deep canyons, and the world's largest dinosaur statue overlooking the valley. The Royal Tyrrell Museum houses one of the world's most extensive paleontology collections, making it a must-visit destination for science enthusiasts. The badlands' rugged terrain and scenic backroads are perfectly suited for exploration, offering opportunities to discover hidden gems and capture stunning photographs of this remarkable landscape.

Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump historic site

This UNESCO World Heritage Site preserves one of North America's oldest and best-preserved buffalo hunting grounds, used by Indigenous peoples for over 5,500 years. The interpretive centre provides fascinating insights into Plains Indigenous culture and hunting techniques that sustained communities for millennia.

Educational programs and guided tours help visitors understand the sophisticated hunting strategies and cultural practices of the region's first inhabitants.
