U Haul as a rental car alternative? Interesting....

^^^Pretty interesting idea, to use one of them as simply a rental vehicle. A few years ago, in San Francisco, their new Chevy Silverado pickups had "$20 a day" painted on them. That would be more than competitive with even the Puddle jumpers for rent from Budget, Avis, Enterprise or Hertz. You'd have to go to the Latin quarter though to pick it up on Valencia (near Mission Street) if I recall.....

I had to rent a Ford ZX2 about then, and that POS cost me $65 a day, rented from the Union Square area of SF. Wish I had thought of that then.
