U-Haul’s Oldest Moving Truck Finally Retired From Service

After nearly 100 years of providing hundreds of thousands of wind-blown and bug-toothed customers with a true Adventure in Moving, U-Haul’s very first rental truck is finally being pulled out of service.

“She still runs good,” said U-Haul spokesman Chuck “Chuckles” Ricochet, who added, “I wouldn’t hesitate to drive her across town or across the country right now, although it’d be more enjoyable if it had a windshield and a radio.”

Nicknamed “Floozy” after the founder’s third wife, the truck has traveled sufficient miles to journey to the galaxy SXDF-NB1006-2, or approximately 12.9 heapalightyears.  It is powered by a 1.5-horsepower two-cylinder engine that runs solely on lamp oil, which, according to Ricochet, can be a challenge to find in some areas.

Ricochet noted that the truck is equipped with U-Haul’s iconic Mom’s Attic extended storage area, although he acknowledged that Mom herself has been dead since 1931.
