I just returned from such a trip. Bought a glider in Phoenix and drove it back to New Hampshire. I flew out, inspected the glider, and towed it back behind a 10ft uhaul box truck. That was the only easy way to get a one way rental with a hitch. It was a really good tow vehicle. No glider sway. No cruse control, but it had the next best thing, a governor set to 75. So I could just floor it the whole way home. If you want to reduce expenses, bid for something yourself on uship and bring back a load in your otherwise empty truck...

I've thought of the rental truck idea, a friend looked into it and ran into a bunch of rules or issues that killed the idea. Don't U-hauls come with an odd hitch size like 2 1/4" or something and only allow you to tow their trailers?
And some may be welded on so you can't change them.

What did you end up doing for the hitch?
