First time driving a 3.5t truck. Nervous for the first 20 minutes but soon got the hang of it. The Izuzu cabin was well laid out; no surprises. The booking process was seamless and the price was good and it was further discounted 15% by RAA. The staff, Natalie was knowledgeable, efficient and friendly. Will definitely use Sixt again when the need arises.
