Not sure it is that easy to do hauling in a U-Haul truck, -or at least it wasn't with my U-Haul truck. You see, U-Haul truck boxes all use aluminum bed floors and aluminum wheel boxes over the rear wheels. To haul a vehicle requires cribbing or ramps. Also, no real way to tie a car down. Below are some pix on how we dealt with it on my U-Haul....

BTW, it used to be Penske trucks that were dock-high and had wood floors. Even those have changed.
