Bugeyes will fit on a U-haul car trailer, but loading and unloading is iffy as
the ramps are to far apart by just a couple of inches. I have done it a couple
of times. Two wheel car dolly should work, but you probably need to disconnect
the drive shaft. I bought a Bugeye in Fresno area  and it hauled back to
Seattle on a cheap Harbor Freight 4X8' trailer, but it was all in pieces so
was able to set the sills on 4X4s. In fact it is still on that trailer as I
work on it, so can move it in and out easily.
