Welcome to The BajaNomad!
We have a tough crowd here. What they are trying to tell you is, if you expect help, you have to help by supplying what your plans are. i.e. Where to
where? How far down Baja; how much of a load; what are you importing.
Do as much of the legwork yourself by calling truck rental agencies. Be sure to find out if you can take their truck across the border and what is
required; insurance, etc.
Then people on this board will be more helpful by giving their personal experiences.

Oh well...we just have to fill in the blanks.
If you are moving friends across the border in a southern direction, the truck is only one of your obstacles. Perhaps the smallest one.
The others are

Are you for real???
This is a site about Baja. Did you know that?
Are you intending to move your "friend" to Baja?
My friend Lee lives on the corner of Jardine's and Old Mill roads. When I was visiting I saw a for rent sign for some little apartments on the
property. It looked okay and I doubt if it cost much. Lots of Americanos in the area.
Nice place. A little dusty but nice.
Does that help at all?

Ya know, this doesn't make much sense.
But there is a company called "U-haul". Maybe you've heard of it?
I think they rent trucks. Maybe you could call them.
Does that help at all?

There is a place in San Diego that rents cars and light trucks for Baja. I don't know the name of it but I'm sure someone on here can help. They may
also have bigger trucks or know who does.
Anyone?

When we were looking to move our stuff to San Felipe there was no rental agency I could find that would let me drive in and then out and return it
inthe US at the place where I rented it. We bought a haul trailer, took our stuff to SF, came back to Calif and sold it. For us it was the best
way!!
