California to Utah to California

So, when Mike asked if I wanted to catch a 6 am flight to Salt Lake City and then help him drive a UHaul back to Stockton I couldn't pass it up! Well, I didn't realize it was a 30 foot, diesel, manual transmission, POS truck!  Driving through the salt flats of Utah we drove past this.... what the heck is this??!?!?!?
