Towing a rental trailer with a TJ...
Hiya, folks...
I'm moving from Florida to California in January. I don't have all that much
stuff to take with me, just enough to barely fill a small U-Haul trailer.
The only problem is, upon researching trailer pricing, U-Haul won't rent a
trailer when the towing vehicle has a soft top, which my 2000 Wrangler has.
They said something about safety hazards. I'm still researching that crap.
Anyway, does anyone here know of another place that rents trailers for
one-way travel? or maybe why U-Haul is giving me this crap over the soft
top? They suggested that I rent a truck AND a trailer to tow my Jeep which
seems somewhat reversely ironic I suppose, but the that quadruples the cost
of just renting the trailer.
Anyway... any thoughts, my fellow Jeepers?
Thanks.
