Did you know that U Haul got into renting camper trailers in the 80s?


On Jan 25th, 1984, U Haul announced it was going to start renting it's own brand of travel trailers, made to it's specs.

Dayton Trailer Manufacturing co actually made them, from 1984 to 85, and rented them until 1990. Made in both 13 and 16 foot sizes, were made durable due to the beating they might take as rentals, and they also were made with swamp coolers and more specially for renting, cabinets that could be removed for easier cleaning

When U Haul was done renting them, they painted over the markings and sold them
