And by "in a U-Haul," we mean it in the most literal sense. This is what happens at the end of a move when enterprising lads look for something to do with their now-empty truck. Enter one Mazda Miata that fits nicely inside the box hauler and Internet gold is born. Watch it after the jump. Thanks to Dan Strohl at Hemmings for the tip!
Shoulda done that with the 1970's broke down diesel missing 3rd gear 40oz beer can under the seat having u-Haul I had when I last moved. Thing got up and went when it was empty tho.

Would have been funny if he woulda gained traction.
Of course, I only mean that as a surface level "ha ha", not like a "Dude then it woulda gone through and hit the driver" type of argument-starter.
Imagine getting that truck. "These... look like skidmarks?"

Unless he was doing a burnout in reverse I don't think he has much to worry about.

would have been funny to be the next guy to rent it and find 2 nice patches of rubber on the floor and a lingering smell of burning rubber...

If it is the LSD ain't working, frickin' one-wheel-wonder action goin' on there.

Ahh U-hauls... brings back memories of a U-Haul... an empty parket lot at 2am... and a fresh covering of snow on the ground...

Doing burnouts WITH a U-Haul would have been better. Surely you could get that thing sideways if you tried hard enough. Pansy indeed.

Even better would be doing a burnout in the Uhaul while the Miata was doing a burnout!
