I would definitely recommend this truck rental company to anyone needing reliable service and equipment. Will absolutely be using them again in the future!
We had an excellent experience renting this truck for our vacation. The vehicle was clean, reliable, and exactly as described. It drove great the entire trip and made traveling much more comfortable. The owner was responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the rental process. Pickup and drop-off were smooth and convenient. We would definitely rent this truck again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable vehicle for a trip.
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
Rental process was very easy. I had the car dropped off and picked up from my house with no issues. Vehicle was super clean! Will absolutely rent from again!!!
Great vehicle. Super clean and comfortable. Super responsive host. Was available on time. Would recommend to anybody looking to rent a truck. Will use again in the future
Truck rental again was great, very clean and comfortable, will do business again in future, thank you.
Tian was great. He helped guide us throughout the whole rental process. The car has amazing FSD. I would highly recommend for roadtrips. Would rent again from him
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 ✌️
Amazing truck, flawless and very reasonable price. Just keep in mind it's rear wheel drive so not best for snowy conditions! But otherwise awesome car!
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.
Great truck rental experience! The vehicle was clean, reliable, and easy to drive. The host is easy to talk to and made pickup/drop-off smooth and hassle-free. Highly recommend!
Elio’s truck was perfect and he was responsive throughout the rental process. He helped provide accurate pick up and drop off directions and the process was smooth throughout. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions in Shawnee Mission
Why rent a car in Shawnee Mission?
Car rental in Shawnee Mission provides the hauling capacity needed for moving furniture, transporting large purchases from local home improvement stores, or handling construction materials. The spacious cargo areas accommodate bulky items that won't fit in standard vehicles, making personal car rentals ideal for weekend projects around Kansas City metro area. Pickup trucks offer the versatility to navigate both suburban neighborhoods and rural areas surrounding Shawnee Mission with ease.
What should I expect when driving a truck versus a car?
Trucks sit higher than regular cars, providing better visibility of traffic ahead but requiring adjustment to judge distances and clearances under bridges or in parking garages. The longer wheelbase and increased weight of rental cars mean wider turning circles and longer stopping distances compared to passenger vehicles. Most modern pickup trucks feature power steering and responsive handling that makes the transition from car driving relatively straightforward.
How do I park a large truck safely?
Choose parking spaces with extra room on both sides, preferably end spots or areas designated for larger vehicles throughout Shawnee Mission shopping centers. Use your mirrors extensively and take your time backing into spaces, as trucks have larger blind spots than standard cars. Personal rental cars benefit from parking further from building entrances where spaces tend to be wider and less congested.
How do I manage weight distribution in my truck?
Load heavy items directly over the rear axle in the front portion of the truck bed to maintain proper balance and traction. Distribute weight evenly from side to side and secure all cargo with tie-downs or bungee cords to prevent shifting during transport around Kansas roads. Avoid exceeding the payload capacity listed in your car rental specifications, as overloading affects braking performance and vehicle stability.
What safety features do modern trucks offer?
Contemporary pickup trucks include electronic stability control, anti-lock braking systems, and multiple airbags as standard safety equipment. Many rental cars feature backup cameras, blind spot monitoring, and collision warning systems that assist with maneuvering in tight spaces or busy traffic. Advanced traction control helps maintain grip on wet or slippery surfaces common during Kansas weather changes.
Where are the best truck road trip destinations from Shawnee Mission?
The Flint Hills scenic byway offers stunning prairie landscapes perfect for exploring with a personal rental car, while Lake of the Ozarks provides excellent camping and outdoor recreation opportunities. Kansas state parks like Clinton Lake and Pomona Lake feature boat ramps and camping areas where trucks prove invaluable for hauling recreational equipment. Historic towns like Lawrence and Topeka showcase Kansas heritage and provide interesting day trip destinations accessible via scenic rural roads.
