That has been a thing for Uhaul for several decades. Welcome to soft top ownership. Kind of sucks.
Yeah, it sure does. I rented a van instead, a Penske Van. Screw Uhaul...

What a stupid policy. I've never heard such a thing. 🤪

You should pull a "Pretty Woman" on them, and drive into their lot in your Penske van and say, "Remember when I tried to rent a trailer from you the other day and you wouldn't do it? Big mistake. Big. Huge!"

I didn't get a chance to weigh the tongue before taking the boat back to storage in Needles, so I'll have to weigh it later this year. I assume its in the 450 pound range, but I really do need to get an accurate measurement soon before I tow too much with the Bronco. We've got a Suburban we will use most of the time, but I know I'll use the Bronco on short trips.
I actually just weighed on a truck scale this morning. The tongue weight is right on 450. The overall boat weight though is almost 5,500... so I guess I won't be towing with the Bronco much.

Just pulled the boat out of the garage to test run on the garden hose.
The wife had the truck so I hitched up the Bronco!
pulled it out and back in with no problem!😎

Got any pics of the hitch you’re using? I’m trying to visualize the difference between a “hitch extension” and an “extra-long hitch”…
FYI if you’re looking for the perfect size that clears the spare.

But only soft-top SUVs! Soft top sports cars or coupes seem to be ok with UHaul. Go figure! Probably stems from the roll-over prone Suzuki Samurais from the 80s !
