A U-Haul car hauler? No way, not unless you're looking to kill someone. First off, the tractor is almost certainly way too wide. The wheels are almost certainly dished out, and even if they're slid all the way in, the tractor is pushing 8 feet wide. Those car haulers only handle a maximum of 82". Good luck getting the wheels loosened up, flipped around, and slid in. Second, those trailers are open down the middle. If the tractor has a narrow front, where's it going to sit? If it's a wide front, good luck getting the front end slid in. Third, an M weighs something on the order of over 6000 pounds. Add 2000 pounds more for the trailer, and you're not going to want to haul that with the family minivan, or even a 1/2 ton You're also not going to pull it with your family SUV either, or your 1/2 ton pickup.
