Think twice before renting U-HAUL

Almost everyday I see big orange U-HAUL trucks on highways and roads, but after watching these videos, i was shocked by just how poorly maintained those trucks actually are after watching the videos, the tests were conducted by CTV (Canadian Television) on a show called W5, which is sort of like news program and over the course of 2 years and 2 separate times trucks were deemed unsafe for the roads with no brakes, broken exhausts, suspension bits, etc

Watch the videos, the results are going to shock you and make you think twice about renting a U-HAUL truck

First tests in 2005:
