Where to rent an auto trailer?
I have always borrowed a trailer when I needed to tow a car. I had a nice double axle that I used for a while, but the owner moved away. Since then I've been renting from UHaul when I had to, but they have been only short distance pulls. The Uhaul trailers always have crap tires and weigh 2000 lbs.
I'm considering picking up a car that's 300 miles away. My tow vehicle will be a Montero Sport or a Chevy Colorado, neither are "real" tow vehicles, but are fine for short distance towing. Does anyone have a source to rent a trailer for a day or two that would be lighter than the 2000lb Uhaul trailer? The car that's going on it is a ~2500 lb miata. Thanks |
Is a uhaul 2wheel dolly an option? I've never used one, just know they're available but not ideal.

No, this car needs to be on a flatbed (broken suspension).
|
Sounds like you're getting a good deal.

Try Penske

Budget won't rent a trailer unless you rent one of their trucks to tow it with. Bastards. :twofinger: |
huh, no shit? oh well.
don't forget a comealong to wench the fucker up unless it runs. anyway for 300 miles I wouldn't sweat it. even some light duty SUVs can tow 5,000 pounds these days. check the manual. |
