Honestly, I think we can all agree, if a person doesnt find Boaty McBoatface to be an acceptable name for a British research boat then they are really what is wrong with this country. It's a uniting force.
If you are able to spend some time looking around you can find some decent deals, at least in my neck of the woods. I found facebook marketplace or some other direct rental was the better option. I seemed to lose a lot of the miscellaneous fees that way.
Based on your responses it sounds like you've already made up your mind and just want validation. With that said I don't know if the small amount of extra cash is worth potentially creating an angry neighbor.
Looking to sell my K3 6400 bag. Used on one trip. No rips tears or blood stains, this thing is almost like new. I did have two of the buckles for compression straps break. I replaced the front 4 with kifaru buckles and I'll send the straps with them. $150 tyd.
