I do the same but I have the boat behind the trailer. Have to have all the toys. In the uhaul I have the full outside kitchen, sink and all. Sets up in no time, 6-8 hour set up, 4-6 to put it away. Makes the weekend fly by...

I don't think he made it, cause if you zoom in on the picture there is a what looks like a trooper standing next to the fiver and one bent over by the u-haul trailer

I was told something similar to that about my first diesel pick up truck. Needless to say, the truck now has 660,000 miles on it. It's been a wonderful 23 years.

In Oregon we have at least one cite " operation of unsafe vehicle combo" and maybe "careless driving" if he crashed or tore up the road. I would even phone uhaul and in my history with them, they would come and recover their vehicle.
