    Default Car Trailer Rental

    Other than U-Haul who else rents car trailers??

    I'm thinking about towing the Miata to Houston for the Divisional.

    If you guys won't say it, I will



    This isn't some not-running CSP unsprung wagon. Just drive the car.

    Budget rents them. Just don't tell them you're hauling a Miata. Tell them it's a Taurus or something.

    Less gas, saves money, more fun! I've driven my car to every track event I've done. Hallett being the furthest, 4 years in a row.

    Well gals, this year I've driven the Miata to Arkansas and Houston as well as all the events it does every month.

    Figured it would be nice to tow it with the 4Runner and give the Miata some rest.

    So long as it's going to return to the same U-haul dealer, it usually costs about $30 dollars a day, unless their prices have jumped in the last 5 years.

    My brother found Ryder to be much cheaper on truck rentals, but I don't know about car haulers. I know the one he had was extreemly heavy for my little 1/2 ton 1999 Nissan Frontier. I was afraid it was going to come loose cause I only had a 2" ball and their hitch was a 2 5/16". Drug it down the street because we did'nt want to have to back the Ryder truck all the way down the hill onto a very busy street.

    +1 on Ryder. Newer and better maintained equipment. When I moved out here a couple o' years ago, I rented a Ryder truck and car hauler. Kinda fun blowing by all the uhauls lugging up the hills.
