Never thought of renting a truck to tow and for sure didn't realize that it's possible to transport a vehicle in a rental truck. Seems like that would be a lot of weight, but I guess there are trucks with plenty of hp to do the job.
U-Haul trucks 14' or larger have at least 6,000 pounds payload, except the 20' which is rated for hauling 5,600 pounds. Move up to a Penske truck and you can haul 12,000 pounds or more inside. Just don't try to build your own ramps to load the car. A transfer fee should cost $70 or less at each end. Plenty of fail videos on you tube of folks trying to load their cars themselves.
