Uhaul sport trailer manufacturer?

[technocoy]

I was thinking that I would love to get one of those uHaul sport trailers and paint it to match the vehicross. It's one easy way to add a good bit of storage for road trips where i want more than two people in the VX.

I think the shape of that puppy would fit well with the VX and it would look sweet painted to match with come nice wheels...

Anybody have a clue how you would find one for sale? I've searched eBay, trailer shops, etc, but i can't find crap about it...

Thanks all,

id contact uhaul directly, call a corperate office or somethin to see where/if they sell them.. or go to a uhaul and look for a badge on one of them and see who actually makes them

[technocoy]

yeah, i think i might make a trip over to the uHaul place and see if i can't spot something...

I tracked this down 2 years ago. they were made by Uhaul only. They will never sell one because it makes finding stolen units almost impossible for the police. They want police to know that if you can't produce a rental agreement, it is HOT. I even offered if we could do a group buy of all existing units (they no longer produce them and in many areas are reluctant to rent them...there seems to be a problem with them cracking when one traveles from high elevation to lower elevations (in particular, the Rocky mountains)).

well, damn

that sucks... I was really excited... thats the first trailer i had seen that looked so good with the VX... oh well. Thanks for the info, DKmiller.

I used one of those to bring back engine parts from Coach Reed and it rocked! Very cool design and easy to use plus it looked right behind the VX. They do sell their trailers after some tire period and probably earlier on those since the fiberglass probably gets damaged by clutsy customers. I

t's not because of stolen tracking that they don't sell them - VINs are on trailers too and they would be stripped of the logos just like the trucks they sell after they are done with them. Call corporate (it will take a long time to find someone who really knows) and let us know. I'd buy one.

According to the U-Haul website, they don't sell trailers....

I got my info from corporate...called 'em twice about a month apart...any UHaul dealer (worth their salt) can provide a direct number. I hope Tone is correct (but would bet otherwise). Here's start:

Hi guys I am a trailer manufacturer in Australia. I have a lockable, aerodynamic, quality automotive finish, trailer that I built because I hate the look of square steel trailers. Australia has long distances coast to coast, similar to U.S. and this puppy is made to travel and protect your gear, with style. If you want to see something different I can send you pics, and details.
