The short answer
A full-size pickup rental seats 5 to 6 and fits open truck bed. Typical models are the Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Ram 2500 or similar. It suits bigger loads; heavier-duty trucks like the Ram 2500 are only at some locations, and towing isn't allowed on Enterprise trucks.
Key takeaways
- Seats 5 to 6, with open truck bed.
- You book the class, not the model: the Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Ram 2500 or similar.
- Prices change by date and place, so your agent quotes the real total on the call.

From the rental companies' own fleet pages, checked October 2026. Fleets change, and the model you get depends on what's on the lot.
Who is a full-size pickup good for?
A full-size pickup is a good fit for bigger loads; heavier-duty trucks like the Ram 2500 are only at some locations, and towing isn't allowed on Enterprise trucks. If you're unsure between two sizes, think about your bags first: most people run out of boot space before they run out of seats.
What should I check before I book a full-size pickup?
- Age: drivers under 25 often pay a daily young driver fee, and some classes need you to be older. See under 25 rentals.
- Card: the deposit usually goes on a credit card in the driver's name. See what you need to rent a car.
- Cover: check what your own insurance or card already covers before you buy cover at the counter.
