<br />I've asked a couple different U-Haul sites if I could rent a truck to pull my trailer and they said no faster than I could blink. But, I'd guess you can rent their moving van and their trailers together. According to their site, the smallest truck they have with capacity to tow our boats is 14 feet.

I'm not challenging you, because your experience is identical to mine. But they are definitely guilty of falsely hyping their options on their website:

<font size="3">Towing capability</font id="size3">

All U-Haul trucks have towing capability in case you need extra space or want to tow a vehicle behind you.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></font id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">
Note that I'm not even looking to tow a big heavy sailboat. I just want to pull a little 15' fishing boat.
