I expect you've considered this before, but how about going with the "backpackers car" model, ie: people who would be divvying up the truck hire could insteadbuy something like this (well, okay, smaller and cheaper?) then sell it again after you've used it.
Or there's the option of keeping it, with the advantage of having it whenever you want, being able to store things in it for as long as you like, and doing as you please with it. But then there is the risk of mechanical failure (also a problem with a hire vehicle, though), expensive mechanical maintenance, the question of storing the truck in between uses and so forth.
