Mobile Alamo Full Size today

Just got to the villa after landing about 21:15, Had the "straight to garage " booked. The row of Full Size vehicles was over 8 pick up trucks, two Nissan Altima's and a banana yellow Dodge Charger. Guest what's on the drive!
Why would you want a pick up truck?

We had the banana yellow Dodge Charger over Christmas. The kids convinced me it was just like Bumblebee. It was certainly really easy to spot in the car park! My son would of loved the truck too!

Do the pick ups have any sort of cover for the back? Trying to think what to hire in July when 18 of us are travelling together and wondered whether two 7 seaters and a pick up would do if all the luggage could go in the back of the pick up but worried that it might rain on either of the trips to/from the airport.

Steve. High risk booking and hoping they have one there. Very very unusual to see them but I do ocassionally.

I have never seen one with the rear cover.

They tend to all be open back from the ones i have seen there.

Not really ideal if it rains on your luggage or you have a pram, day bags etc etc with you.

I'm really worried it will be full of trucks not cars when we go. Hoping it will be better at 3 to 4 in the afternoon.
