Truck branches do not need to run as tight as car, and everything is done on strict reservation basis. So there is actually time to run/grow the business as opposed to scampering around in panic mode trying to help retail customers into cars you don't have.

There is a lot more marketing in the truck division, and a lot less beraucracy.
truck rental's way more organized and better managed. only the best area managers from rental are asked to move into truck. shit is just way better planned out, the reservations are made way in advance, cause trucking companies dont fuck around the way dealerships and bodyshops do. none of this, we're sending a customer over now and shes in a hurry, she needs a car and scrambling for cars at 8:30 at night on a friday
