We rented a U-Haul once to move the girlfriend and that was the last time I ever gave them any business. The truck was a mess with junk in the cab, tires were near the end of their life. Of course it had to boil up a thunderstorm and I found the wipers didn't function. We were going 45 mph down a four lane hwy and the brakes decided to go--that was fun since the traffic light was red. I went to blow the horn and well that didn't work either, next tried the emergency brake which was inoperable. Finally I ended up down shifting the trans and we slowed enough to get through the light without hitting anyone. Then as we coasted to a stop I realized we had a very strong gas smell--you guessed it, we were leaking.

Needless to say we were refunded all of our money and a few weeks later the local news did a story on the U-Haul where we had rented the truck since someone was in a serious accident with one of there trucks. The owner swore up and down his trucks were in perfect working order. Penske here has some nice trucks you can rent. I also have a trailer now. I rented a car trailer a few weeks ago from a different U Haul and it was a POS but I only had to go 22 miles.
