I just checked, and they have a Toyota pickup truck in their car
"line-up". If they put a stand at Menards and Home Depot, and I'll
use it.

Menards will rent you a Ford pickup (at least around here) for something
like $20 for 75 minutes. Good enough to get a refrigerator home, but
something loose and bulky like landscape stone might take longer to load
and unload.

I haven't needed to rent one yet, but just the plates for a year in IL will
cost you 5 times the rental cost of the truck. Add insurance and you can
rent the truck 10-20 times before it's cheaper than owning one.

Yes, Home Depot used to have a deal where if you spent over $100 you
could have an hour of truck rental for free. But when I last asked
about it no one there knew what I was talking about.
