I am picing a car up this weekend in Washington and need a truck to tow it with. Where would be the best rental place? I am also under 25. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

good luck. I couldn't find a single rental company that allow you to rent -only- a truck and take it out of state lines.
U-Haul will rent you a moving van to go out of state but you cannot use your own trailer with it (they install locks on the hitches) so you must rent one of theirs. This will be a higher rate as well since you won't be going "one way"
We had our "tow' truck blow a tranny in Oregon, left it behind brought the show truck home and had to go back and get the "tow" rig & trailer. I went to Hertz equiptment rental, got a F250 and rented it for a couple of days (they will allow you to tow your trailer with thier truck). Told them I wouldn't take it out of state when they asked. Lied my ass off. Brought it back with tons of miles. Didn't get caught tho. It was a VERY expensive rental, well over $500 (for miles and daily rate) + all the fuel used.

Ive heard that most companies will not let you rent a vehicle unless your 25+ years of age.
