When I needed one, I rented from Home Depot etc. for $20, 2-3 times a year.

wasn't aware Home Depot was in the truck rental business

Home Depot is across town for me and I rarely visit

Lowes and Menards are more convenient - I haven't noticed a truck rental program

probably not needed here in the rural land of pickups

The Menards near us in Cincy had two pickups to rent, $20.  So did the Lowes.  You get 75  minutes, I think, and when I went over, they didn't charge me.

We have a Home Depot sort of near us now and they have rental trucks.  I can walk there if I'm not buying something heavy.  I guess it is 1.5 miles walking.

Some who parks near us has a Macan, which my wife likes a lot, this is meant to compete in that general category.

As discussed previously, SUVs are tall, have more ground clearance, and are built on truck chassis.

Station wagons are none of the above.

Macan is pretty small. Much prefer the Cayenne.

I would drive that.
supercharged 682-hp 6.2-liter V-8

OK, now I'm interested
besides, it's more station wagon / sedan than SUV

The Macan looks huge next to our GTI.

The "Corvette" is whatever you want to call it, I dislike the dilution of the name brand.

Though, the  term "corvette" referred to a small British slow cheap destroyer type back in WW 2, what we called a "Destroyer Escort".

I don't get too worked up over what to call these things.
