the problem I’ve had with uhaul trailers is that they are not friendly for low vehicles. I had an FD RX7 that had ohlins coilovers on. I replaced the motor and the turbos and needed to trailer it to get tuned… it was a nightmare with the uhaul… I had to build ramps to get the car on… I had to build blocks to elevate the front end of the car just so it didn’t rip the splitter off… only to have to back the car on to ensure I don’t rip bumpers off.
the uhaul trailers are convenient but you have to make sure you have everything you need to keep the car elevated from contacting the trailer.
that experience sealed the deal for me on getting my own trailer that mitigates the majority of those issues.
I wanted to rent one locally but there are 0 people or companies doing it.
agree it’ll be cold, I’m bringing a propane heater

it's gonna be COLD! Well unless you hit a pocket of weather like the mid-50's we've had this week. The local track rat 'storage' guy in Herndon has a trailer that looks like yours that last I talked to him was like $200 to rent for the weekend.
I eyeballed u-haul this afternoon and it looks like ball height is about 16" inches. That sound about right?
