Driving up to Utah was not an easy journey. The 12 hour drive took 19 hours. Just north of Panguitch on the 20 I ran into a snow storm. Nothing like a blizzard to keep you from progressing. I had to park the uhaul at the top of the mountain . I was sliding on the way up and I was worried I would roll off the cliff on the way down. A sheriff came by after about two hours. He said the June snow storm was the worst he had seen in 30 years. We said the snow plows had to have the cobwebs brushed off of them and they would be by in a few hours. Eventually the plows came and we were off only to be stopped by a truck stuck going up hill. What a crazy trip!
The uhaul web site says that the 26' truck gets 6-8 miles per gallon. LIES!!! I got 4 miles per gallon. What a crock! I hate uhaul and their lies. The trip from Queen Creek AZ to West Jordan Utah cost me $475 dollars. Ouch.
Bottom line...Uhaul lies and gas is expensive. Moving sucks.

Ouchie. That totally sucks, bro.
Glad you made it though.
funny ... i have friends that are moving TO queen creek, AZ. happy you made it!
Are you kidding?! It's ridiculous.
I just knew there would be a snowstorm at that spot. There ALWAYS is!...it being June just proves that point.
I, too, hate U-haul...and I used to work for them! I have serious issues with some of their procedures. Hope the remainder of your move goes smoothly!
