       22,614,087 shares of AMERCO Common Stock, $0.25 par value, were
outstanding at June 24, 1999.  The aggregate market value of AMERCO Common Stock
held by non-affiliates (i.e., stock held by persons other than officers,
directors and 5% shareholders of AMERCO was $168,032,116.  The aggregate market
value was computed using the closing price for the Common Stock trading on
Nasdaq on June 21, 1999.

       5,385 shares of U-Haul International, Inc. Common Stock, $0.01 par value,

                                    A. AMERCO

     AMERCO, a Nevada corporation (AMERCO), is the holding company for U-Haul
International, Inc. (U-Haul), Amerco Real Estate Company (Real Estate), Republic
Western Insurance Company (Republic) and Oxford Life Insurance Company (Oxford).
Throughout this Form 10-K, unless the context otherwise requires, the term
"AMERCO" includes all of its  subsidiaries.  AMERCO's executive offices are
located at 1325 Airmotive Way, Suite 100, Reno, Nevada 89502-3239, and the
telephone number is (775) 688-6300.  As used in this Form 10-K, all references
to a fiscal year refer to AMERCO's fiscal year ended March 31 of that year.
Republic and Oxford are consolidated on the basis of calendar years ended
December 31.  Accordingly, all references to the years 1998, 1997 and 1996
correspond to AMERCO's fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  AMERCO
has four industry segments represented by Moving and Storage Operations
(U-Haul), Real Estate, Property and Casualty Insurance (Republic) and Life
Insurance (Oxford).  See Note 21 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
in Item 8 for financial information regarding the industry segments.

Moving and Storage Operations
     Moving and self-storage operations consist of the rental of trucks and
trailers, sale of moving aids such as boxes and the rental of self-storage
spaces to the do-it-yourself mover.  Operations are under the registered
tradename U-Haul<REGISTERED TRADEMARK> throughout the United States and Canada.

Real Estate Operations
     Real Estate owns approximately 90% of U-Haul's real estate assets,
including U-Haul Center and Storage locations.  The remainder of the real estate
assets are owned by various U-Haul entities.  Real Estate is responsible for
managing all of the properties including the environmental risks of the
properties.  Real Estate is responsible for the purchase of all properties used
by AMERCO or any of its subsidiaries.  Real Estate also handles all the
dispositions (sale or lease) of unused real estate.

Property and Casualty Insurance
     Republic originates and reinsures property and casualty-type insurance
products for various market participants, including independent third parties,
U-Haul's customers, independent dealers and AMERCO.

Life Insurance
     Oxford originates and reinsures annuities, life, credit life and
disability, health and Medicare supplement insurance.  Oxford also administers
the self-insured employee health and dental plans for AMERCO.

     On November 21, 1997, Oxford purchased all of the issued and outstanding
shares of Encore Financial, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Encore).  Encore's
primary subsidiary is North American Insurance Company (NAI).  NAI's premium
volume is primarily from the sale of credit life and disability products, and
Medicare supplement insurance.  NAI owns all of the issued and outstanding
common shares of  North American Fire & Casualty Insurance Company, a property
and casualty company.  In December 1998, North American Fire & Casualty
Insurance Company was sold to Republic.

     On November 24, 1997, Oxford purchased all of the issued and outstanding
shares of Safe Mate Life Insurance Company (Safe Mate).  As of November 1, 1998,
Safe Mate merged into Oxford.  Safe Mate's business was the sale of credit life
and disability products.

                                   B. HISTORY

     U-Haul was founded in 1945 under the name "U-Haul Trailer Rental Company".
From 1945 to 1974, U-Haul rented trailers and, starting in 1959, trucks on a
one-way and In-Town<REGISTERED TRADEMARK> basis through independent dealers.
Since 1974, U-Haul has developed a network of owned rental centers (U-Haul
Centers) through which U-Haul rents its trucks and trailers and provides related
products and services (e.g., the sale and installation of hitches, as well as
the sale of boxes and moving supplies).  At March 31, 1999, U-Haul's
distribution network included 1,100 U-Haul Centers and 14,700 independent
dealers.

<PAGE> 4
                        C. MOVING AND STORAGE OPERATIONS

Business Strategies
     AMERCO's present business strategy remains focused on do-it-yourself moving
and self-storage customers.  U-Haul believes that customer access, in terms of
truck or trailer availability and proximity of rental locations, is critical to
its success.  Under the U-Haul name, this strategy is to offer, in an integrated
manner over an extensive and geographically diverse network of 15,800 Company-
owned Centers and independent dealers, a wide range of products and services to
do-it-yourself moving and self-storage customers.


Moving Operations
     U-Haul has a variety of product offerings.  Rental trucks are designed with
do-it-yourself customers in mind, and may include features such as
Low Decks<REGISTERED TRADEMARK>, air conditioning, power steering, automatic
transmissions, Gentle-Ride Suspensions<REGISTERED TRADEMARK>, AM/FM cassette
stereo systems and over-the-cab storage.  Aerodynamically designed U-Haul
trailers are suited to the low profile of many newly manufactured automobiles.
As of March 31, 1999, the U-Haul rental equipment fleet consisted of 93,400
trucks, 79,100 trailers and 17,900 tow dollies.  Additionally, U-Haul provides
support rental items such as furniture pads, hand trucks, Appliance
Dollies<TRADEMARK>, Utility Dollies<TRADEMARK>, mirrors, tow bars, floor
polishers, carpet cleaning equipment and bumper hitches.

     Approximately 90% of U-Haul's rental revenue is from do-it-yourself movers.
Moving rentals include:
     (i)  In-Town<REGISTERED TRADEMARK> rentals, where the equipment is returned
          to the originating U-Haul location and
     (ii) one-way rentals, where the equipment is returned to a U-Haul location
          in another city.

     U-Haul's truck and trailer rental business tends to be seasonal, with
proportionally more transactions and revenues generated in the spring and summer
months than during the balance of the year.

     U-Haul also sells a wide selection of moving aids that include boxes, tape
and packaging materials.  U-Haul Centers also sell and install hitches and
towing systems, and sell propane.

     U-Haul offers protection packages such as:
     (i)  Safemove<REGISTERED TRADEMARK> - which provides moving customers with
          a damage waiver, cargo protection and medical and life coverage and
     (ii) Safestor<REGISTERED TRADEMARK> - which provides self-storage rental
          customers with various types of protection for their goods in storage.

     Independent dealers receive U-Haul equipment on a consignment basis and are
paid a commission on gross revenues generated from their rentals. U-Haul
maintains contracts with its independent dealers that typically may be canceled
upon 30 days written notice by either party.

     U-Haul designs and manufactures its truck van boxes, trailers and various
other support rental equipment items.  The rental equipment is designed to
achieve high safety standards, simplicity of operation, reliability,
convenience, durability and fuel economy.  Truck chassis are manufactured by
both foreign and domestic truck manufacturers.  These chassis receive certain
post-delivery modifications and are joined with van boxes at strategically
located company owned manufacturing and assembly facilities in the United
States.

     U-Haul services and maintains its trucks and trailers through an extensive
preventive-maintenance program, generally performed at company owned facilities
located at or near U-Haul Centers.  Major repairs are performed either by the
chassis manufacturers' dealers or by company owned repair shops, and U-Haul
takes advantage of manufacturers' warranties.

Competition
     The moving truck and trailer rental market is highly competitive and
dominated by national operators in both the In-Town<REGISTERED TRADEMARK> and
one-way markets.  During the past two years, two major competitors combined.
Budget Rent-A-Car acquired Ryder TRS (Ryder Truck Rentals) as a subsidiary.
Management believes that there are two distinct users of rental trucks:
commercial users and do-it-yourself users.  As noted above, U-Haul focuses on
<PAGE> 5
the do-it-yourself mover.  U-Haul believes that the principal competitive
factors are convenience of rental locations, availability of quality rental
equipment and price.

Self-Storage Business
     U-Haul entered the self-storage business in 1974 and since then has
increased the rentable square footage of its storage locations through the
acquisition of existing facilities and new construction.  The remaining 10% of
U-Haul's rental revenue is generated from storage.  In addition, U-Haul has
entered into management agreements to manage self-storage properties owned by
others.  U-Haul has also entered into a strategic and financial partnership with
Private Mini Storage Realty, L.P., a Texas-based operator of 47 self-storage
properties.

     Through over 900 owned or managed storage locations in the United States
and Canada, U-Haul offers for rent more than 27.3 million square feet of self-
storage space.  U-Haul's self-storage facility locations range in sizes up to
152,000 square feet of storage space, with individual storage units in sizes
from 15 square feet to 400 square feet.

     The primary market for storage rooms is the storage of household goods.
With the addition of over 10,400 storage rooms during fiscal 1999, average
occupancy rates were 81.7%, with modest seasonal variations.  During fiscal
1999, delinquent rentals as a percentage of total storage rentals were
approximately 6.2%.  U-Haul considers this rate to be satisfactory.

Competition
     The primary competition for a U-Haul self-storage location is other storage
facilities within a three mile radius offering a comparative convenience to the
customer.

Employees
     As of March 31, 1999, U-Haul's non-seasonal work force consisted of 14,400
full and part-time employees.

                            D. REAL ESTATE OPERATIONS

Real Estate Operations
     Real Estate has responsibility for actively marketing properties available
for sale or lease.  Real Estate is also responsible for managing any
environmental risks associated with AMERCO's real estate.

Environmental Matters
     Compliance with environmental requirements of federal, state and local
governments significantly affects Real Estate's business operations.  Among
other things, these requirements regulate the discharge of materials into the
water, air and land and govern the use and disposal of hazardous substances.
Real Estate is aware of issues regarding hazardous substances on the properties.
Real Estate regularly makes capital and operating expenditures to stay in
compliance with environmental laws.  Since 1988, Real Estate has managed a
testing and removal program for underground storage tanks.  Under this program,
over 3,000 tanks have been removed at a cost of $40.0 million.

     Based upon the information currently available to Real Estate, compliance
with the environmental laws and its share of investigation and cleanup costs of
the hazardous waste sites, Real Estate is not expecting to incur losses with
respect to the known sites that would have a material adverse effect on AMERCO's
financial position or operating results.

     Real Estate has been named as a "potentially responsible party" with
respect to disposal of hazardous waste at 16 federal and four state superfund
sites located in 15 states.  Real Estate has entered into settlements for 18 of
the sites for de minimus amounts.  One of these sites has been disputed by Real
Estate with no response for over six years and a second is in dispute over
statute of limitations restrictions.

     A subsidiary of U-Haul, INW Company (INW), owns one property located within
two different state hazardous substance sites in the State of Washington.  The
property is located in Yakima, Washington and is believed to contain elevated
levels of pesticide and other contaminants as a result of onsite operations
conducted by one or more former owners.  The State of Washington has designated
the property as a state hazardous substance site known as the "Yakima Valley
Spray Site", and has named the subsidiary as a "potentially liable party" (PLP)
under state law with respect to this site.  An enforcement order has been issued
to INW to conduct a remedial investigation and feasibility study (RI/FS) of the
<PAGE> 6
site.  While the state has not, as yet, named any other PLPs at this site,
several other parties are participating in the RI/FS as the result of litigation
brought by INW.  This RI/FS group retained an environmental consultant to
perform the work and the RI/FS consultant costs are being shared with INW paying
20% of the costs.  The state has accepted the RI, but the FS has not been
completed due to the disputes over the determination of cleanup levels for the
site.  The state has indicated that it plans on issuing an enforcement order to
INW concerning the conduct of remediation even though the FS has not been
completed.  No agreement has been negotiated, as of this time, between INW and
other parties with respect to allocation of costs of remediation or of the
state's oversight costs at this site.  The process of site assessment and
cleanup at the Yakima Valley Spray Site is ongoing and, based upon the
information currently available, INW is unable to reasonably assess the
potential future costs, but the costs could be substantial.

     In addition, INW has been named by the State of Washington as a PLP along
with over 100 other PLPs with respect to another state-listed hazardous
substance site known as the "Yakima Railroad Area".  The Yakima Valley Spray
Site is located within the Yakima Railroad Area.  INW has been notified that the
Yakima Railroad Site involves potential groundwater contamination in an area of
approximately two square miles.  INW has contested its designation as a PLP at
this site, but, at the date hereof, no formal ruling has been issued in this
matter.

     In February 1992, the State of Washington issued an enforcement order to
INW and eight other parties requiring an interim remedial action and the
provision of bottled water to households that obtain drinking water from wells
within the Yakima Railroad Area.  Without conceding any liability, INW and
several of the other PLPs implemented a bottled water program.  Over the past
five years, INW has incurred an average annual expense of $720 for the bottled
water program.  Utilizing grants of approximately $6.0 million from the
Washington Department of Ecology (WDOE), the local governments have expanded the
existing municipal water system throughout the Yakima Railroad Area and have
connected many of the residences receiving bottled water to the municipal water
supply.  WDOE has reserved its rights concerning recovery of the funds for the
municipal water system expansion.

     In addition, WDOE is conducting additional investigations of the scope and
extent of contamination within the Yakima Railroad Area.  One facet of this
involves the sampling of all existing monitoring wells within the area,
including those at the Yakima Valley Spray Site.  WDOE issued an enforcement
order to INW regarding such additional sampling.  U-Haul expects there will be
costs associated with remedial measures to address the regional groundwater
contamination issue.  The process of site assessment on the Yakima Railroad Area
is ongoing and, based upon the information currently available to INW, INW is
unable to reasonably assess the potential investigation and cleanup costs, but
the costs could be substantial.  Moreover, the investigative and remedial costs
incurred by the State can be imposed upon INW and any other PLP as a joint and
several liability.  At the date of this report, other than the imposition of the
bottled water program and ordering of site-specific actions at individual
properties within the Yakima Railroad Area, there has been no formal indication
from the State of Washington of its intentions regarding future cost recoveries
at the Yakima Railroad Area.


                             E. INSURANCE OPERATIONS

Business Strategies
     Republic's principal business strategy is to provide specialty insurance
for personal, commercial and reinsurance markets.  Republic focuses on selected
regional and under-served customers through managing general agents, independent
agents and brokers.

     Oxford's business strategy is long-term capital growth through direct
writing of annuity, credit life and disability, universal life and Medicare
supplement insurance.  Currently, Oxford is pursuing this growth strategy of
increased direct writing via acquisitions of small insurance companies, expanded
distribution channels and product enhancement and diversity.  The acquisition of
North American Insurance Company and Safe Mate Life Insurance Company in 1997
represent a significant movement toward this long-term goal.  Oxford has
significantly expanded its distribution channels and administrative capabilities
through these acquisitions.

Investments
     Republic and Oxford investments must comply with the insurance laws of the
State of domicile.  These laws prescribe the type, quality and concentration of
investments that may be made.  Moreover, in order to be considered an acceptable
reinsurer by cedents and intermediaries, a reinsurer must offer financial
security.  The quality and liquidity of invested assets are important
considerations in determining such security.
<PAGE> 7
     The investment philosophies of Republic and Oxford emphasize protection of
principal through the purchase of investment grade fixed-income securities.
Approximately 95.7% of Republic's and 92.3% of Oxford's fixed-income securities
consist of investment grade securities (NAIC-2 or greater).  The maturity
distributions are designed to provide sufficient liquidity to meet future cash
needs.

Reinsurance
     Republic and Oxford assume and cede insurance from and to other insurers
and members of various reinsurance pools and associations.  Reinsurance
arrangements are utilized to provide greater diversification of risk and to
minimize exposure on large risks.  However, the original insurer retains primary
liability to the policyholder should the assuming insurer not be able to meet
its obligations under the reinsurance agreements.

Regulation
     Republic and Oxford are subject to regulation throughout the United States.
The regulation extends to such matters as licensing companies and agents,
restricting the types, quality or quantity of investments, regulating capital
and surplus and actuarial reserve maintenance, setting solvency standards,
filing of annual and other reports on financial position, and regulating trade
practices.  State laws also regulate transactions and dividends between an
insurance company and its parent or affiliates, and generally require prior
approval or notification for any change in control of the insurance subsidiary.
Republic's unpaid loss and loss expenses are certified annually by an
independent actuarial consulting firm as required by state regulation.

     In the past few years, the insurance and reinsurance regulatory framework
has been subjected to increased scrutiny by the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners (the NAIC), federal and state legislatures and insurance
regulators.  These regulators are considering increased regulations, with an
emphasis on insurance company investment and solvency issues.  It is not
possible to predict the future impact of changing state and federal regulations
on the operations of Republic and Oxford.

     Republic and Oxford are in compliance with NAIC minimum risk-based
capitalization (RBC) requirements for insurance companies as of December 31,
1998.

Competition
     The highly competitive insurance industry includes a large number of
property and casualty insurance companies and life insurance companies.  Many
competitors have been in business for a longer period of time or possess
substantially greater financial resources.  Competition in the insurance
business is based upon price, product design and services rendered to producers
and policyholders.

Employees
     Republic's non-seasonal work force consists of 340 full and part-time
employees.

     Oxford's non-seasonal work force consists of 120 full and part-time
employees.

Life Insurance
     Oxford offers annuities, life, credit life and disability, and Medicare
supplement insurance products, both as a direct writer and as an assuming
reinsurer.  In addition, Oxford administers self-insured group health and dental
plans for AMERCO.  Reinsurance arrangements are entered into with unaffiliated
reinsurers.  Oxford's subsidiary, North American Insurance Company underwrites
credit life and disability, and Medicare Supplement insurance.

Property and Casualty
     Republic's business activities consist of three basic areas:  U-Haul,
direct and assumed reinsurance underwriting.  U-Haul underwritings include
coverage for U-Haul customers, independent dealers and employees of AMERCO.  For
the year ended December 31, 1998, approximately 29.8% of Republic's written
premiums resulted from U-Haul underwriting activities.  Republic's direct
underwriting is done through company-employed underwriters and selected general
agents.  The products provided include liability coverage for rental vehicle
lessees, storage rental properties, coverage for commercial multiple peril,
nonstandard auto, mobile homes and excess workers' compensation.  Republic's
assumed reinsurance underwriting is done via broker markets.  In an effort to
decrease risk and avoid situations, Republic has entered into various
catastrophe cover policies to limit its exposure.  Furthermore, Republic is not
writing insurance coverage specifically for hurricanes or earthquakes.

     Republic's liability for reported and unreported losses is based on company
historical and industry averages.  Unpaid loss adjustment expenses are based on
historical ratios of loss adjustment expenses paid to losses paid.  The
<PAGE> 8
liability for unpaid claims and unpaid claims expenses represents estimates of
the amount necessary to settle all claims as of the statement date.  Both
reported and unreported losses are included in the liability.  Republic updates
the liability estimate as additional facts regarding claim costs become
available.  These estimates are subject to uncertainty and variation due to
numerous factors.  In estimating reserves, no attempt is made to isolate
inflation from the combined effect of other factors including inflation.  Unpaid
losses and unpaid loss expenses are not discounted.

     Activity in the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses
is summarized as follows:

     As a result of changes in estimates of insured events in prior years, the
provision for unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses (net of reinsurance
recoveries of $29.9 million) decreased by $8.8 million in 1998.

     The table on page 9 illustrates the change in unpaid loss and loss
adjustment expenses.  First line - reserves as originally reported at the end of
the stated year.  Second section, reading down, - cumulative amounts paid as of
the end of successive years with respect to that reserve.  Third section,
reading down, - revised estimates of the original recorded reserve as of the end
of successive years.  Last section - compares the latest revised estimated
reserve amount to the reserve amount as originally established.  This last

     AMERCO subsidiaries own property, plant and equipment that are utilized in
the manufacture, repair and rental of U-Haul equipment and that provide offices
for U-Haul.  Such facilities exist throughout the United States and Canada.  The
majority of land and buildings used by U-Haul is owned in fee and is
substantially unencumbered.  U-Haul also manages storage facilities owned by
others.  In addition, U-Haul owns certain real estate not currently used in its
operations.  U-Haul operates 1,100 U-Haul Centers (including Company-owned
storage locations), manages 172 storage centers and operates 12 manufacturing
and assembly facilities.  U-Haul also operates 125 repair facilities located at
or near a U-Haul Center.


                           ITEM  3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     See Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 for
disclosure of the action in the Superior Court of the State of Arizona, Maricopa
County, entitled Samuel W. Shoen, M.D., et al. v. Edward J. Shoen, et al., No.
                 --------------------------------------------------------
CV88-20139, instituted August 2, 1988 and the resulting bankruptcy proceedings
(the "Shoen Litigation").

     On September 7, 1995, Paul F. Shoen, a major stockholder of AMERCO filed a
complaint in the Ninth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, Douglas
County, entitled Paul F. Shoen v. AMERCO, Case No. 95-CV-0227.  The complaint,
                 -----------------------
as amended on March 9, 1998, alleged that by failing to reimburse him for
expenses, including attorneys' fees and other charges, incurred by him in the
Shoen Litigation and the subsequent bankruptcy proceedings, AMERCO breached his
indemnification agreement with AMERCO.  Mr. Shoen alleged that AMERCO caused
damages and sought additional amounts to be alleged at trial.  By agreement of
the parties, the case was referred to an independent counsel for resolution on
January 29, 1999.  The independent counsel awarded Mr. Shoen $810 thousand of
the $1.2 million that he sought.  On or about June 1, 1999, the determination of
the independent counsel became final and AMERCO agreed to pay Mr. Shoen such
amount, plus approximately $175 thousand in accrued interest and expenses.

     In the normal course of business, AMERCO is a defendant in a number of
suits and claims.  AMERCO is also a party to several administrative proceedings
arising from state and local provisions that regulate the removal and/or cleanup
of underground fuel storage tanks.  It is the opinion of management that none of
the suits, claims or proceedings involving AMERCO, individually or in the
aggregate, are expected to result in a material loss.  See "Item 1.  Business -
Environmental Matters".


          ITEM  4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

     No matter was submitted to a vote of the security holders during the fourth
quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report, through the solicitation of
proxies or otherwise.

     As  of  June 24, 1999, there were approximately 3,500 holders of record  of
AMERCO's Common Stock.

     AMERCO's  Common  Stock has been traded on Nasdaq National Market  (Nasdaq)
since November 1994 under the symbol "UHAL".  The following table sets forth the

     AMERCO has not declared any cash dividends to common stockholders for the
two most recent fiscal years.

     AMERCO does not have a formal dividend policy.  AMERCO's Board of Directors
periodically considers the advisability of declaring and paying dividends in
light of existing circumstances.  See Note 20 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements in Item 8 for a discussion of certain statutory restrictions on the
ability of the insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends to AMERCO.

     See Note 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 for a
discussion of AMERCO's non-cash dividends.  See Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8 for a discussion of changes to common shares
outstanding.

     The common stock of U-Haul is wholly-owned by AMERCO.  As a result, no
active trading market exists for the purchase and sale of such common stock.  No
cash dividends were declared to AMERCO by U-Haul during the two most recent
fiscal years.

Forward-Looking Statements
     This report contains forward looking statements.  Additional written or
oral forward-looking statements may be made by AMERCO from time to time in
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise.  Such forward-
looking statements are within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the
Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.  Such statements may include, but not be limited to, projections of
revenues, income or loss, estimates of capital expenditures, plans for future
operations, products or services and financing needs or plans, as well as
assumptions relating to the foregoing.  The words "believe", "expect",
"anticipate", "estimate", "project" and similar expressions identify forward
looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made.
Forward looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties,
some of which cannot be predicted or quantified.  Future events and actual
results could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by or
underlying the forward looking statements.  The following disclosures, as well
as other statements in AMERCO's report and in the Notes to AMERCO's Consolidated
Financial Statements, describe factors, among others, that could contribute to
or cause such differences, or that could affect AMERCO's stock price.

General
     Information on fiscal year and industry segments is incorporated by
reference to "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Notes 1, 20
and 21 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements".  The notes discuss the
principles of consolidation, summarized consolidated financial information and
industry segment and geographic area data, respectively.  In consolidation, all
intersegment premiums are eliminated and the benefits, losses and expenses are
retained by the insurance companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
     Net  cash  provided  by  Operating Activities was  $159.5  million,  $180.6
million  and  $154.2 million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997,  respectively.
Details by material segment follows:

  Moving and Storage Operations
     Cash provided (used) by operating activities was $128.5 million, $109.8
million and $(127.8) million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
The increase from fiscal year 1998 to fiscal year 1999 is partially due to an
increase in net income.  The increase from fiscal year 1997 to fiscal year 1998
is attributed to a paydown of the intercompany payables during fiscal year 1997.

  Real Estate Operations
     Cash provided by operating activities was $38.0 million, $92.5 million and
$52.4 million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  In fiscal year
1999, proceeds received from the sale of real estate was used to paydown the
intercompany payable.  The increase in fiscal year 1998 was due to an increase
in the intercompany payable.

  Property and Casualty
     Cash provided (used) by operating activities was $(21.7) million, $23.8
million and $15.0 million for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.  The 1998 to 1997 change resulted mainly from an increase in paid
losses recoverable and the change in loss and loss expense reserves partially
offset by increased net income and decreased accounts receivable.  The 1997 to
1996 change resulted mainly from decreased due from affiliates and the change in
reserves partially offset by decreased net income and increased accounts
receivable.

     Republic's cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment portfolio
were $6.1 million, $16.3 million and $30.8 million at December 31, 1998, 1997
and 1996, respectively.  This balance reflects funds in transition from maturity
proceeds to long-term investments.  This level of liquid assets, combined with
budgeted cash flow, is adequate to meet periodic needs.  Capital and operating
budgets allow Republic to schedule cash needs in accordance with investment and
underwriting proceeds.
<PAGE> 15

  Life Insurance
     Cash provided by operating activities was $34.6 million, $8.2 million and
$16.5 million for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.  The increase in cash flows from operating activities in fiscal
year 1999 relates to the increased premium production in the credit insurance
and Medicare supplement areas.  The decrease in cash flows from operating
activities in 1998 relates to decreased annuity deposits.

     Oxford's primary sources of cash are premiums, receipts from interest-
sensitive products and investment income.  The primary uses of cash are
operating costs and benefit payments to policyholders.  Matching the investment
portfolio to the cash flow demands of the types of insurance being written is an
important consideration.  Benefit and claim statistics are continually monitored
to provide projections of future cash requirements.

     In addition to cash flows from operating and financing activities, a
substantial amount of liquid funds is available through Oxford's short-term
portfolio.  Short-term investments aggregated $63.1 million, $13.4 million and
$4.5 million at December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Management
believes that the overall sources of liquidity will continue to meet foreseeable
cash needs.

Consolidated Group
     To meet the needs of its customers, U-Haul must maintain a large inventory
of fixed asset rental items.  At March 31, 1999, net property, plant and
equipment represented approximately 63.2% of total U-Haul assets and
approximately 41.9% of consolidated assets.  In fiscal 1999, gross capital
expenditures for property, plant and equipment were $298.5 million, as compared
to $392.3 million and $203.9 million in fiscal 1998 and 1997, respectively.
These expenditures primarily reflect the replacement of certain rental trucks
and trailers.  The capital needs required to fund these acquisitions were funded
with internally generated funds from operations and lease financings.

     During each of the fiscal years ending March 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002,
U-Haul estimates gross capital expenditures will average approximately $325
million primarily reflecting rental fleet rotation.  This level of capital
expenditures, combined with a potential range of $30-$115 million in annual long-
term debt maturities, are expected to create annual average funding needs of
approximately $325-$375 million.  Management estimates that U-Haul will fund
100% of these requirements with leases and internally generated funds, including
proceeds from the disposition of older trucks and other asset sales.

Moving and Storage Operations
     Moving and storage stockholders' equity was $384.7 million, $342.9 million
and $305.5 million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The
increase in fiscal year 1999 was due to earnings and to the sale of property to
a related party recorded to the Consolidated Statements of Changes in
Stockholders' Equity in addition to increased earnings. The increase in fiscal
year 1998 and 1997 was due to increased earnings.

Real Estate Operations
     Real estate stockholders' equity was $79.5 million, $45.5 million and $38.6
million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The increase in
fiscal year 1999 was due to earnings and to the sale of property to a related
party recorded to the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders' Equity
in addition to increased earnings. The increase in fiscal year 1998 and 1997
was due to increased earnings.

Property and Casualty
     Republic maintains a diversified securities investment portfolio, primarily
in bonds at varying maturity levels with 95.7% of the fixed-income securities
consisting of investment grade securities.  The maturity distribution is
designed to provide sufficient liquidity to meet future cash needs.  Current
liquidity remains strong, with current invested assets equal to 106.6% of total
liabilities.

     Republic's stockholders' equity was $211.4 million, $195.4 million and
$192.3 million at December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Republic
considers current stockholder's equity to be adequate to support future growth
and absorb unforeseen risk events.  Republic does not use debt or equity issues
to increase capital and therefore has no exposure to capital market conditions.
<PAGE> 16

Life Insurance
     Oxford's stockholders' equity was $93.6 million, $85.8 million and $75.3
million in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Oxford did not pay dividends to
its parent during 1998 or 1997.

     Applicable laws and regulations of the State of Arizona require Republic
and Oxford to maintain minimum capital determined in accordance with statutory
accounting practices.  With respect to Republic, such amount is $1.0 million,
with respect to Oxford the amount is $400 thousand.  In addition, the amount of
dividends that can be paid to stockholders by insurance companies domiciled in
the State of Arizona is limited.  Any dividend in excess of the limit requires
prior regulatory approval. Statutory surplus which can be distributed as
dividends without regulatory approval at December 31, 1998 is $166.0 million and
$5.3 million for Republic, and Oxford, respectively at December 31, 1998.  These
restrictions are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability
of the Company to meet its cash obligations.  Oxford issued a surplus note to
AMERCO on December 31, 1998 for $10.0 million, approval by the Arizona
Department of Insurance is required prior to payment of principal and interest.

Credit Agreements
     AMERCO's operations are funded by various credit and financing
arrangements, including unsecured long-term borrowings, unsecured medium-term
notes and revolving lines of credit with domestic and foreign banks. To finance
its fleet of trucks and trailers, U-Haul routinely enters into sale and
leaseback transactions.  As of March 31, 1999, AMERCO had $1,114.7 million in
total notes and loans outstanding and unutilized committed lines of credit of
approximately $103.0 million.

     Certain of AMERCO's credit agreements contain restrictive financial and
other covenants, including, among others, covenants with respect to incurring
additional indebtedness, issuing mandatory repayment preferred stock,
maintaining certain financial ratios and placing certain additional liens on its
properties and assets.  At March 31, 1999, AMERCO was in compliance with these
covenants.


Results of Operations - Consolidated

Rental Revenue
     Rental revenue, net of commission expense was $1,074.2 million, $1,018.7
million and $973.8 million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Details by material segment follow:

   Moving and Storage Operations
     Rental revenue was $1,072.1 million, $1,016.2 million and $971.3 million in
fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The increase from fiscal year
1998 to fiscal year 1999 was primarily due to the growth in truck rental
revenues which benefited from transactional growth reflecting increased
utilization.  The increase from fiscal year 1997 to fiscal year 1998 also
reflects a growth in truck rental revenues benefiting from transactional growth
and reflects a higher average revenue per transaction.

   Real Estate Operations
     Rental revenue before intercompany eliminations were $74.0 million, $69.9
million and $68.1 million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Intercompany rental revenue was $71.9 million, $67.4 million and $65.6 million
in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The increase from fiscal
year 1998 to fiscal year 1999 reflects the addition of new system operating
companies.

Net Sales
     Net sales revenues were $181.3 million, $176.2 million and $173.0 million
in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Revenue growth from the sale
of moving support items (i.e. boxes, etc.) and propane resulted in the increase
during both years.

Premiums
     Premium revenues, after intercompany eliminations, were $226.8 million in
fiscal 1999, $164.6 million in fiscal 1998 and $163.6 million in fiscal 1997.
Details by material segment follow:

   Property and Casualty
     Premium revenues, before intercompany eliminations, were $145.3 million,
$155.9 million and $156.5 million for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997
and 1996, respectively.  The 1998 premium decrease resulted from U-Haul
<PAGE> 17
Liability programs in the rental industry, which decreased to $66.6 million
during 1998 from $84.5 million during 1997 and $83.9 million during 1996.  This
decrease in premiums resulted from an increase in the deductible and
correspondingly decreased 1998 premium taxes by $0.3 million from 1997.  The
change in premium did not result in a change in the coverage offered to U-Haul.
General agency premium of $6.5 million for 1998 increased from the $5.8 million
for 1997, but decreased from the $8.8 million for 1996.  This was due to the
cancellation of a general agency agreement, a portion of which is now being
written through another agent.  Direct multiple peril premium increased to $21.0
million at December 31, 1998 compared to $16.5 million and $15.9 million for
1997 and 1996, respectively.  Assumed treaty reinsurance increased to $51.2
million for the year ended December 31, 1998 as compared to $49.1 million and
$47.8 million at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The increase in
assumed treaty reinsurance is primarily in short-tail property coverage.

   Life Insurance
     Premium revenues, before intercompany eliminations, were $94.5 million,
$29.7 million and $27.8 million for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively.  During 1998, Oxford realized premium increases from 1997
and 1996 in the areas of Medicare supplement, credit life and disability, and
single premium whole life insurance products.  Oxford increased Medicare
supplement premium through the reinsurance of a block of policies and by adding
direct premium from the acquisition of NAI in 1997, increasing premiums by $31.7
million.  Credit life and disability premiums grew $27.2 million from the
acquisition of NAI and Safe Mate.  Both of the acquired companies heavily market
credit life and disability insurance.  Oxford began marketing a new single
premium whole life policy in 1998; this product accounted for $2.6 million of
new premiums.

Net Investment and Interest Income
     Net investment and interest income was $69.6 million, $65.0 million and
$75.0 million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Details by
material segment follow:

  Moving and Storage Operations
     Interest income was $12.9 million, $13.1 million and $23.0 million in
fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The decrease in interest
reflects the sale of notes receivable during fiscal year 1997.

  Real Estate Operations
     Net investment and interest income was $4.5 million, $600 thousand and
$1.8 million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The increase in
fiscal year 1999 was due to the realized gain on the sale of property acquired
through foreclosure.  Also contributing to the increase was interest income
received on notes receivable.  The decrease in fiscal year 1998 reflects a lower
average notes receivable balance.

  Property and Casualty
     Net investment income was $32.9 million for the year ended December 31,
1998,  $31.3 million for 1997 and $30.6 million for 1996.  The continued
increases result from enhanced yield provided by an increased investment in
preferred stock.

  Life Insurance
     Net investment income was $19.1 million for the year ended December 31,
1998, $17.8 million for 1997 and $18.8 million for 1996.  The increase is due to
the increase in the average invested assets for the year, which was the result
of new premium in 1998 and the increased asset base from the acquisition of NAI
and Safe Mate.

Operating Expenses
     Operating expenses were $885.3 million, $817.9 million and $778.7 million
in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Details by material segment
follow:

   Moving and Storage Operations
     Operating expenses were $893.0 million, $857.9 million and $839.7 million
in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The increased expense is due
to increased personnel cost and other administrative costs. Increased liability
insurance, due to transactional growth, continued for fiscal year 1999 from
fiscal years 1998 and 1997.
<PAGE> 18
   Real Estate Operations
     Operating expenses were $6.2 million in fiscal 1999, $7.7 million in fiscal
1998 and $8.3 million in fiscal 1997.  Real Estate benefited from a reduction in
intercompany management fees charged by an affilated segment company during
fiscal year 1999 compared to the prior two years.


  Property and Casualty
     Operating expenses were $32.8 million, $12.0 million and $27.5 million for
the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Commissions
consisted of $18.8 million at December 31, 1998 compared to $4.1 million at
December 31, 1997 and $19.9 million at December 31, 1996.  The 1998 commission
increase of $14.7 million from 1997 and the decrease of $15.8 million from 1996
is mainly due to the recognition of a large contingent commission in 1997 on an
excess of loss reinsurance contract and assumed treaty reinsurance.  Also
contributing was an increase in sliding scale commissions on the assumed treaty
reinsurance.  Lease expenses increased to $1.3 million for 1998 as compared to
$300 thousand and $100 thousand for 1997 and 1996.

     All other underwriting expenses consisted of $15.5 million, $8.2 million
and $8.4 million for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The increase results
primarily from increased expenses in the claims organization.  During 1998,
94 positions were added in home and field office locations and two offices were
opened in Texas and Iowa.  The positions added were staff, director and manager
levels, bringing multiple years worth of claims, management and leadership
experience to Republic's operations.  Benefits from these additions include a
reduction in average file age from 600+ days to nearly 100 days for non-
litigated files; a reduction in law suits by 35%, customer complaints are down
by 70%; and a decrease in Department of Insurance complaints of 50%.  In
addition, loss and loss adjustment expenses are down 20% and 30%, respectively,
since 1997.

   Life Insurance
     Operating expenses were $31.0 million, $6.9 million and $2.4 million for
the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  A key component
of operating expenses is the amortization of acquisition costs resulting from
the purchase of NAI.  This amounts to $12.1 million in 1998.  Commissions have
increased $4.0 million in 1998 in proportion to the increase in new premiums.
Operating expenses, still within budgeted expectations, have increased in 1998
due to the expansion of business volume.

Cost of Sales
     Cost of sales was $106.8 million, $101.7 million and $103.8 million in
fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Increased material costs and a
higher sales volume related to moving support items contributed to the fiscal
year 1999 increase over fiscal year 1998.  Cost of sales was virtually unchanged
from fiscal year 1997 to fiscal year 1998 as lower costs associated with the
sale of propane offset increased costs in other areas.

Benefits and Losses
     Benefits and losses were $176.6 million in fiscal 1999, $175.6 million in
fiscal 1998 and $174.1 million in fiscal 1997.  Details by material segment
follow:

   Property and Casualty
     Benefits and losses incurred were $118.9 million, $165.9 million and $131.4
million for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The
loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred during 1998 decreased from 1997 and
1996 due mainly to the reduction in insurance transactions with U-Haul and
corresponds to the decrease in liabilities for unpaid claims due to estimated
future losses for current and prior policies for those transactions.  The 1997
loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred increased from 1996 due to an increase
in liabilities for unpaid claims on general agency assumed reinsurance and
rental industry reserves.

   Life Insurance
     Benefits incurred were $57.7 million, $24.4 million and $27.0 million for
the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  This increase
is primarily due to credit life and credit disability, and Medicare supplement
benefits incurred.  These benefits are related to the new business placed on the
books in 1998.  The new Medicare supplement reinsurance accounted for $14.7
million of the increase.  Credit life and disability benefits increased by $8.9
million from 1998.

Amortization of Deferred Acquisition Costs
     Amortization of deferred acquisition costs was $20.2 million, $14.2 million
and $16.5 million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Deferred
acquisition costs consists of commissions and other policy acquisition costs,
which vary with and are primarily related to the production of new business.
The prior year end commissions and other related expenses are recognized ratably
over the remainder of the policy year.  Details by material segment follow:


   Property and Casualty
     Amortization was $7.4 million, $8.6 million and $9.9 million for the years
ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The continuing decrease
is due to reduced writings in the assumed reinsurance line.

   Life Insurance
     Amortization was $12.8 million, $5.6 million and $6.6 million for the years
ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Deferred policy
acquisition costs have increased $13.9 million and $11.0 million from 1998 and
1997 respectively.  Oxford's large increase in single premium credit writings
is the cause of the increase in both the deferred costs and the subsequent
amortization.

Lease Expense
     Lease expense was $118.7 million, $89.9 million and $86.0 million in fiscal
years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Details by material segment follow:

   Moving and Storage Operations
     Lease expense was $118.4 million, $89.9 million and $85.9 million in fiscal
years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The continued increase reflects
additional leasing activity due to favorable lease rates.

   Real Estate Operations
     Lease expense for real estate operations is minimal at $140 thousand, $148
thousand and $79 thousand for fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Depreciation Expense, net
     Depreciation expense, net was $73.1 million, $69.7 million and $66.7
million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Details by material
segment follow:

   Moving and Storage Operations
     Depreciation expense, net was $61.0 million, $64.6 million and $62.3
million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The decrease in
fiscal year 1999 reflects an increase in the gains from the disposition of
property, plant and equipment.  The change from fiscal year 1998 and 1997
reflects an increase in depreciation expense of non-rental equipment.

   Real Estate Operations
     Depreciation expense, net was $12.0 million, $6.4 million and $4.0 million
in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The increase in fiscal year
1999 reflects a decrease in the gains from the disposition of property, plant
and equipment, offset by the increased depreciation expense relating to the
addition of new facilities for operating system companies.  The change from
fiscal year 1998 and 1997 reflects a reduction in gains from the disposition of
property, plant and equipment offset by an increase in depreciation expense of
buildings and non-rental equipment.

Earnings from Operations
     Earnings from operations were $171.3 million, $155.7 million and $159.6
million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Details by material
segment follow:

   Moving and Storage Operations
     Earnings from operations were $87.0 million, $78.7 million and $75.7
million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Increased rental
transactions offset by corresponding expenses contributed to the earnings gain
for the past two years.

   Real Estate Operations
     Earnings from operations were $60.3 million, $58.1 million and $57.7
million in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  A decrease in
intercompany management fees charged contributed to the earnings increase for
fiscal year 1999 compared to the prior two years.
<PAGE> 20
   Property and Casualty
     Earnings from operations were $19.1 million, $700 thousand and $18.3
million for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
This represents an increase of $18.4 million and $800 thousand over 1997 and
1996, respectively.  The 1998 increase resulted mainly from decreased
underwriting expense, increased net investment income and net realized gains on
investments, partially offset by a reduction in earned premiums.

   Life Insurance
     Earnings from operations were $12.2 million, $10.6 million and $10.6
million for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The
increase over prior years is primarily due to improved insurance claim loss
ratios and higher volume of revenue.

Interest Expense
     Interest expense was $73.7 million in fiscal 1999, $79.4 million in fiscal
1998 and $76.0 million in fiscal 1997.  The decrease can be attributed to a
reduction in the average cost of debt over the past two fiscal years.  The
average debt level outstanding decreased in fiscal year 1999 compared to fiscal
year 1998, and increased in fiscal year 1998 compared to fiscal year 1997.

Extraordinary Loss on the Extinguishment of Debt
     During fiscal year 1998, AMERCO extinguished $76.0 million of 10.27%
interest-bearing notes originally due in fiscal 1999 through fiscal 2002.  This
resulted in an extraordinary loss of $4.0 million, net of tax of $2.4 million
($0.18 per share).  AMERCO also extinguished $255.0 million of 6.43% to 8.13%
interest-bearing notes originally due in fiscal 1999 through fiscal 2010.  This
resulted in an extraordinary loss of $9.7 million, net of tax of $5.6 million
($0.44 per share).

     During fiscal year 1997, AMERCO extinguished debt of approximately $76.3
million by irrevocably placing cash into a trust of U.S. Treasury securities to
be used to satisfy scheduled payments of principal and interest.  AMERCO also
extinguished $86.2 million of its long-term notes originally due in fiscal 1997
through fiscal 1999.  These transactions resulted in an extraordinary loss of
$2.3 million, net of tax of $1.4 million ($0.09 per share).

Earnings of the Consolidated Group
     As a result of the foregoing, pretax earnings of $97.6 million  were
realized in fiscal year 1999 compared to $76.3 million in fiscal year 1998 and
$83.5 million in fiscal year 1997.  After providing for income taxes, earnings
from operations were $62.5 million in fiscal year 1999 compared to $48.7 million
in fiscal year 1998 and $54.2 million in fiscal year 1997.  Following deductions
for an extraordinary loss from the early extinguishment of debt, net earnings
for the current year were $62.5 million compared to $35.0 million in fiscal year
1998 and $51.9 million in fiscal year 1997.

Quarterly Results
     The table on page 21 presents unaudited quarterly results for the eight
quarters in the period beginning April 1, 1997 and ending March 31, 1999.
AMERCO believes that all necessary adjustments have been included in the amounts
stated below to present fairly, and in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, the selected quarterly information when read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements incorporated herein by
reference.  U-Haul moving and storage operations are seasonal and proportionally
more of AMERCO's revenues and net earnings from its U-Haul moving and storage
operations are generated in the first and second quarters of each fiscal year
(April through September).  The operating results for the periods presented are
not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.

Year 2000 Disclosure
     AMERCO is and has been working since 1997 to identify and complete the
changes necessary to its existing computerized business systems to make these
systems compliant for Year 2000 processing.  The Year 2000 processing problem is
caused by currently installed computer systems and software products, including
several used by AMERCO, being coded to accept only the last two digit entries in
the date code field instead of four digits to indicate the year.  Such programs
may interpret the year 2000 to mean 1900 instead, producing erroneous
information or date-related computer failures.

     AMERCO's date reliance functions related to the Year 2000 and beyond, such
as rental transaction processing and financial systems, may be adversely
affected unless these computer systems are or become Year 2000 compliant, on a
timely basis.  Replacing, upgrading or modifying key financial systems has
been on-going in the normal course of business.  AMERCO is utilizing both
internal and external resources to identify, correct, reprogram and test its
systems for Year 2000 compliance.  In particular, AMERCO has an outside
consulting firm on-site currently making the Year 2000 compliance related
modifications to existing systems.  The assessment phase is complete for
information technology.  AMERCO's internal information technology conversion
phase is underway, with the testing phase going on at the same time.

     AMERCO is also assessing its non-information technology items for Year 2000
compliance, such as rental vehicles and storage facilities' security systems.

     AMERCO is communicating with its major business partners to determine the
efforts being made on their part for compliance.  Critical vendors with
electronic data interchange are currently being tested.  Testing has been
satisfactorily completed with major banking partners and credit card processors.
Testing is expected to continue through the end of the summer with other
business partners.  There can be no assurance AMERCO will not be adversely
affected by the failure of others to become Year 2000 compliant.  For example,
AMERCO may be affected by, among other things, the failure of inventory
suppliers, credit card processors, security companies or other vendors and
service providers to become Year 2000 compliant.

     AMERCO expects all of its critical systems to be Year 2000 compliant by the
fall of calendar year 1999.  AMERCO started with an initial budget of $2.0
million; as the conversion process continues, it is now anticipated that an
additional $0.8 million may be incurred.  Through March 31, 1999, $2.0 million
has been incurred.  AMERCO is accelerating the replacement of its payroll system
due to Year 2000 non-compliance at an estimated cost of $0.3 million to be
incurred starting in September 1999.  AMERCO has not deferred any major computer
programming or update projects due to Year 2000 efforts.  Although AMERCO
believes it will achieve compliance on a timely basis, no assurance can be given
that AMERCO's computer systems will be Year 2000 compliant by the fall of 1999
or otherwise in a timely manner or that AMERCO will not incur significant
additional costs pursuing Year 2000 compliance.  If the appropriate
modifications are not made, or are not timely, the Year 2000 problem may have a
material adverse effect on AMERCO.

     AMERCO considers its most likely worst case scenario to be if a business
partner is not Year 2000 compliant.  AMERCO is in the process of developing
and refining contingency plans to be used if a business partner is not Year
2000 compliant.  The contingency plans will include manual processing
of rental transactions; manual preparation of payments to employees, vendors and
claimants; manual licensing of equipment; manual preparation of financial
statements and the movement of funds.  The contingency plans have been
formulated, with refinement continuing until the year 2000.

     Despite AMERCO's efforts to date, there can be no assurance that the Year
2000 problem will not have a material adverse effect on AMERCO in the future.


Stockholder Litigation
     As disclosed in Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, on
October 1, 1996, AMERCO paid the last portion of a total of approximately $448.1
million to the plaintiffs (non-management members of the Shoen family and their
affiliates) in full settlement of a long-standing legal dispute involving the
Shoen family and related to control of AMERCO.  As a result, the plaintiffs that
owned AMERCO stock were required to transfer all of their shares of Common Stock
to AMERCO.  The total number of shares transferred was 18,254,976.
<PAGE> 23
     An issue remains, however, regarding whether or not the plaintiffs are
entitled to statutory post-judgment interest at the rate of ten percent (10%)
per year from February 21, 1995 (the date the Director-Defendants filed for
protection under Chapter 11) until the judgment was satisfied.  On July 19,
1996, the bankruptcy court ruled the plaintiffs are entitled to such interest.
The Director-Defendants and AMERCO have appealed the court's decision.  AMERCO
has deposited approximately $48.2 million into an escrow account to secure
payment of the disputed interest, pending final resolution of this issue
(including all appeals by either side).  The escrow account is reflected as a
component of "Other assets" in AMERCO's consolidated financial statements.  If
the interest issue is decided adversely to AMERCO and the Director-Defendants,
the amount deposited into the escrow account will be transferred to the
plaintiffs.  The ultimate outcome of this issue will not have the effect of
increasing or decreasing AMERCO's net earnings, but could reduce stockholders'
equity.

     AMERCO has deducted for income tax purposes approximately $324.0 million of
the payments made to the plaintiffs.  While AMERCO believes that such income tax
deductions are appropriate, there can be no assurance that such deductions
ultimately will be allowed in full.

Other
     On October 1, 1998, AMERCO implemented Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities".  This statement standardizes the accounting for derivative
instruments by requiring that an entity recognize those items as assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure them at fair
value.  It also provides for matching the timing of gain or loss recognition on
the hedging instrument with the recognition of (a) the changes in the fair
value of hedged asset or liability attributable to the hedged risk or (b) the
earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction.  As of March 31, 1999,
AMERCO recorded an after tax adjustment of $3.6 million to accumulated other
comprehensive income recognizing the fair value of derivatives designated as
cash flow hedges.  AMERCO uses interest rate swap agreements to potentially
mitigate the impact of changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt.
For the year ended March 31, 1999, AMERCO recognized $89 thousand as interest
expense, representing the ineffectiveness of the cash flow hedging activity.
At time of implementation, an entity may reclassify held-to-maturity securities
as available-for-sale.  Republic transferred $56.5 million (carrying value) to
available-for-sale from held-to-maturity at time of implementation.  The market
value of these securities was $60.3 million at the date of transfer with a
transition adjustment of $3.8 million.

     Other pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board
adopted during the year are not material to the consolidated financial
statements of AMERCO.  Further, pronouncements with future effective dates are
either not applicable or not material to the consolidated financial statements
of AMERCO.

      ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk
------------------
In the normal course of business, AMERCO is exposed to fluctuations in interest
rates.  AMERCO manages such exposure by the use of a variety of derivative
financial instruments when deemed prudent.  AMERCO does not enter into leveraged
financial transactions or use derivative financial instruments for trading
purposes.  The exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates
primarily to debt obligations.  AMERCO's objective is to mitigate the impact of
changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt.  AMERCO uses interest rate
swap agreements to provide for matching the gain or loss recognition on the
hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of
hedged asset or liability attributable to the hedged risk or the earnings effect
of the hedged forecasted transaction.  See Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.  A fluctuation of the interest rate by 100 basis points
would change AMERCO's interest expense by $2.4 million.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
-----------------------------------
AMERCO's earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of foreign currency
exchange rates.  Approximately 1.9% of AMERCO's revenue is generated in Canada.
The result of a uniform 10% change in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to
the Canadian dollar would not be material.  AMERCO does not typically hedge any
foreign currency risk since the exposure is not considered material.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
                         ---------------------------------



To the Board of Directors
and Stockholders of AMERCO

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index
appearing under Item 14(a)(1) on page 26 present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of AMERCO and its subsidiaries at
March 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 1999, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  In addition, in our
opinion, the financial statement schedules listed in the index appearing under
Item 14(a)(3) on page 26 present fairly, in all material respects, the
information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related
consolidated financial statements.  These financial statements and financial
statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial statement schedules based on our audits.  We conducted our audits of
these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" in fiscal 1999.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The Summary of Earnings of Independent
Trailer Fleets included on pages 69 through 71 of this Form 10-K is presented
for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic
financial statements.  Such information has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

                      AMERCO AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION
     AMERCO, a Nevada corporation (AMERCO), is the holding company for U-Haul
International, Inc. (U-Haul), Amerco Real Estate Company (Real Estate),
Republic Western Insurance Company (Republic) and Oxford Life Insurance Company
(Oxford).  All references to a fiscal year refer to AMERCO's fiscal year ended
March 31 of that year.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent
corporation, AMERCO, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All material
intercompany accounts and transactions of AMERCO and its subsidiaries have been
eliminated.

     Republic and Oxford have been consolidated on the basis of calendar years
ended December 31.  Accordingly, all references to the years 1998, 1997 and 1996
correspond to AMERCO's fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

     The operating results and financial position of AMERCO's consolidated
insurance operations are determined as of December 31 of each year.  There were
no effects related to intervening events between January 1 and March 31 of
1999, 1998 or 1997 that would materially affect the consolidated financial
position or results of operations for the financial statements presented
herein.  See Note 20 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for
additional information regarding the insurance subsidiaries.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
     Moving and self-storage operations consist of the rental of trucks and
trailers, sale of moving aids such as boxes and the rental of self-storage
spaces to the do-it-yourself mover.  Operations are under the registered
tradename U-Haul<REGISTERED TRADEMARK> throughout the United States and Canada.

     Real Estate owns approximately 90% of AMERCO's real estate assets,
including U-Haul's Center and Storage locations.  The remainder of the
properties are owned by various U-Haul entities.  Real Estate is responsible for
managing all of the properties including the environmental risks of the
properties.  Real Estate is responsible for the purchase of all properties used
by AMERCO or any of its subsidiaries.  Real Estate also handles all of the
dispositions (sale and lease) of unused real estate.

     Republic originates and reinsures property and casualty type insurance
products for various market participants, including independent third parties,
U-Haul's customers, independent dealers and AMERCO.

     Oxford originates and reinsures annuities, life, credit life and
disability, health and Medicare supplement insurance.  Oxford also administers
the self-insured employee health and dental plans for the employees of AMERCO.

FOREIGN CURRENCY
     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of U-Haul Co.
(Canada) Ltd., a subsidiary of U-Haul.   The assets and liabilities,
denominated in foreign currency, are translated into U.S. dollars at the
exchange rate as of the balance sheet date.  Revenue and expense amounts are
translated at average monthly exchange rates.  The related translation gains or
losses are included in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders'
Equity and Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and
accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
     AMERCO considers liquid investments with an original maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents ($1,000,000 and $6,568,000 as of March
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively).

RECEIVABLES
     Accounts receivable include trade accounts from customers and dealers.
Republic and Oxford receivables include premiums and agents' balances due, net
of commissions payable and amounts due from ceding reinsurers.   Accounts
receivable are reduced by amounts considered by management to be uncollectible
based on historical collection loss experience and a review of the current
status of existing receivables.

     Notes and mortgage receivables include accrued interest and are reduced by
discounts and amounts considered by management to be uncollectible.

INVENTORIES
     Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is primarily
determined using the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method.

INVESTMENTS
     Fixed maturities consist of bonds and redeemable preferred stocks.  Fair
values for investments are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes or
discounted cash flows.  Fixed maturities are classified as follows:

     Held-to-maturity - recorded at cost adjusted for the amortization of
       premiums or accretion of discounts.
     Available-for-sale - recorded at fair value with unrealized gains or
       losses reported on a net basis in the Consolidated Statements of Changes
       in Stockholders' Equity.  Gains and losses on the sale of these
       securities are reported as a component of revenues using the specific
       identification method.
     Trading portfolio - AMERCO does not currently maintain a trading
       portfolio.
     Mortgage loans & notes on real estate held by AMERCO's subsidiaries - at
       unpaid balances, net of allowance for possible losses and any
       unamortized premium or discount.
     Real estate - at cost less accumulated depreciation.
     Policy loans - at their unpaid balance.

     Investment income is recognized as such:
       Interest on bonds and mortgage loans & notes - recognized when earned.
       Dividends on common and redeemable preferred stocks - recognized on ex-
         dividend dates.
       Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments - recognized at the
         trade date and included in revenues using the specific identification
         method.

     Short-term investments consist of other securities scheduled to mature
within one year of their acquisition date.  See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.

DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS
     Commissions and other costs which vary with and are primarily related to
the production of new business, have been deferred.
     Oxford - costs are amortized in relation to revenue such that profits are
realized as a level percentage of revenue.
     Republic - costs are amortized over the related contract period which
generally do not exceed one year.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
     Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost and are depreciated on
the straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of
the assets.  Building and non-rental equipment have estimated lives ranging
from three to fifty-five years, while rental equipment have estimated lives
ranging from one to twenty years.  Maintenance is charged to operating expenses
as incurred, while renewals and betterments are capitalized.  Major overhaul
costs are amortized over the estimated period benefited.  Gains and losses on
dispositions are netted against depreciation expense when realized.  Interest
costs incurred as part of the initial construction of assets are capitalized.
Interest expense of $909,000, $2,210,000 and $3,430,000 was capitalized during
fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  During fiscal year 1998,
U-Haul increased the estimated salvage value and useful lives of certain rental
equipment.  The effect of the change increased net earnings for fiscal year
1998 by $9,268,000 ($0.42 per share).

     Certain recoverable environmental costs related to the removal of
underground storage tanks or related contamination are capitalized and
depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the properties.  The capitalized
costs improve the safety or efficiency of the property as compared to when the
property was originally acquired or are incurred in preparing the property for
sale.

     At March 31, 1999, the carrying value of AMERCO's real estate that is no
longer necessary for use in its current operations, and available for
sale/lease, was approximately $22,467,000.  Such properties available for sale
are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation; which in the aggregate, is
less than fair market value.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
     AMERCO enters into interest rate swap agreements to reduce its floating
interest rate exposure; AMERCO does not use the agreements for trading
purposes.  Amounts to be paid or received under the agreements are accrued.
Although AMERCO is exposed to credit loss for the interest rate differential in
the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the agreements, it does
not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties.

     AMERCO has mortgage receivables which potentially expose AMERCO to credit
risk.  The portfolio of notes is principally collateralized by mini-warehouse
storage facilities and other residential and commercial properties.  AMERCO has
not experienced losses related to the notes from individual notes or groups of
notes in any particular industry or geographic area.  The estimated fair values
were determined using the discounted cash flow method, using interest rates
currently offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings.

                     ======================        ======================

     Other financial instruments that are subject to fair value disclosure
requirements are carried in the financial statements at amounts that
approximate fair value, unless elsewhere disclosed.  See below, as well as
Notes 4 and 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

     AMERCO's financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of
credit risk consist primarily of temporary cash investments, trade receivables
and notes receivable.  AMERCO places its temporary cash investments with
financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one
financial institution.  Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade
receivables are limited due to the large number of customers and their
dispersion across many different industries and geographic areas.  As discussed
in Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements at March 31, 1999 and
1998 notes receivable are primarily due from one related party.

              Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued


1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

POLICY BENEFITS AND LOSSES, CLAIMS AND LOSS EXPENSES PAYABLE
     Liabilities for policy benefits payable on traditional life and certain
annuity policies are established in amounts adequate to meet estimated future
obligations on policies in force.  These liabilities are computed using
mortality and withdrawal assumptions which are based upon recognized actuarial
tables and contain margins for adverse deviation.  At December 31, 1998,
interest assumptions used to compute policy benefits payable range from 2.5% to
11.25%.

     The liability for annuity policies, which are accounted for as investment
contract deposits, consists of policy account balances that accrue to the
benefit of the policyholders, excluding surrender charges.  Fair value of
investment contract deposits were $457,757,000 and $391,732,000 at December 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively.

     Liabilities for health and disability and other policy claims and benefits
payable  represent  estimates of payments to be made on  insurance  claims  for
reported  losses and estimates of losses incurred but not yet reported.   These
estimates are based on past claims experience and consider current claim trends
as well as social and economic conditions.

     Republic's liability for reported and unreported losses are based on
Republic's historical and industry averages.  The liability for unpaid loss
adjustment expenses is based on historical ratios of loss adjustment expenses
paid to losses paid.  Amounts recoverable from reinsurers on unpaid losses are
estimated in a manner consistent with the claim liability associated with the
reinsured policy.  Adjustments to the liability for unpaid losses and loss
expenses as well as amounts recoverable from reinsurers on unpaid losses are
charged or credited to expense in periods in which they are made.

RENTAL REVENUE
     U-Haul recognizes its share of rental revenue less commission on the
accrual basis pursuant to contractual arrangements between AMERCO and its fleet
owners, rental dealers and customers.  See Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for further discussion.

PREMIUM REVENUE
     Credit life and disability, Medicare supplement and property-casualty
gross premiums are earned on a pro rata basis over the term of the related
contracts. The portion of premiums not earned at the end of the period is
recorded as unearned premiums.  Traditional life and annuity premiums are
recognized as revenue when due from policyholders.  Revenue for annuity
policies which are accounted for as investment contracts are included in net
investment income as investment margins until the policyholder annuitizes, at
which time the policyholders fund balance is recognized as premium.

REINSURANCE
     Reinsurance premiums, commissions and expense reimbursements, related to
ceded business, are accounted for on a basis consistent with those used in
accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance
contracts.  Premiums ceded to other companies have been reported as a reduction
of premium income.  Assets and liabilities relating to ceded contracts are
reported gross of the effects of reinsurance.  See also "Policy Benefits And
Losses, Claims And Loss Expenses Payable" above.

INCOME TAXES
     AMERCO files a consolidated federal income tax return with its
subsidiaries.  In addition to charging income for taxes paid or payable, the
provision for income taxes reflects deferred income taxes resulting from
changes in temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements.  The effect
on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in
the period that includes the enactment date.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
     On October 1, 1998, AMERCO implemented Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities".  This statement standardizes the accounting for derivative
instruments by requiring that an entity recognize those items as assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure them at fair
value.  It also provides for matching the timing of gain or loss recognition on
the hedging instrument with the recognition of (a) the changes in the fair
value of hedged asset or liability attributable to the hedged risk or (b) the
earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction.  As of March 31, 1999,
AMERCO recorded an after tax adjustment of $3,631,000 to accumulated other
comprehensive income recognizing the fair value of derivatives designated as
cash flow hedges.  AMERCO uses interest rate swap agreements to potentially
mitigate the impact of changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt.
For the year ended March 31, 1999, AMERCO recognized $89,000 as interest
expense, representing the ineffectiveness of the cash flow hedging activity.
At time of implementation, an entity may reclassify held-to-maturity securities
as available-for-sale.  Republic transferred $56,485,000 (carrying value) to
available-for-sale from held-to-maturity at time of implementation.  The market
value of these securities was $60,314,000 at the date of transfer with a
transition adjustment of $3,829,000.

     Other pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board
adopted during the year are not material to the consolidated financial
statements of AMERCO.  Further, pronouncements with future effective dates are
either not applicable or not material to the consolidated financial statements
of AMERCO.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
     Basic earnings per common share are computed based on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding for the year and quarterly periods, excluding
shares of the employee stock ownership plan that have not been committed to be
released.  Preferred dividends include undeclared or unpaid dividends of
AMERCO.  Net income is reduced for preferred dividends for the purpose of the
calculation.  The calculation of diluted earnings per share in fiscal year 1999
included assumed conversions of the Series B preferred stock into common stock.
This change has no effect on the calculated earnings per share amount.  In
fiscal years 1998 and 1997, the assumed conversion of the Series B preferred
stock was not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share
because it was antidilutive. Accordingly, basic and diluted earnings per
share are equal.  See Notes 6 and 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for further discussion.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
     Comprehensive income consists of net income, foreign currency
translation adjustment, unrealized gains and losses on investments and fair
market value of cash flow hedges.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
     Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements for
the fiscal years ended 1998 and 1997 to conform with the current year's
presentation.

     During fiscal 1999, a subsidiary of U-Haul held various senior and junior
notes with SAC Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries (SAC Holdings).  The
voting common stock of SAC Holdings is held by Mark V. Shoen, a major
stockholder of AMERCO.  U-Haul's subsidiary received interest income of
$8,022,000, $6,847,000 and $6,281,000 from SAC Holdings during fiscal years
1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  No principal payments were received
during fiscal year 1999.  Principal payments of $1,047,000 and $436,000 were
received during fiscal year 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The note receivable
balance outstanding was, in the aggregate, $179,819,000 and $66,111,000 at March
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, bearing interest rates ranging from 8.37% to
13.0%.  Notes receivable from SAC Holdings includes $526,000 at March 31, 1999
which is secured by land and buildings at various locations.

     During fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, a subsidiary of U-Haul funded
the purchase of properties and construction costs for SAC Holdings of
$26,116,000, $24,574,000 and $43,125,000, respectively.

     In December 1998, U-Haul and Real Estate completed the sale of twenty-six
storage properties to Six SAC Self-Storage Corporation, a subsidiary of SAC
Holdings, for $99,685,000.  Real Estate received cash and notes from the sale.
The gain is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders'
Equity.

     U-Haul currently manages the properties owned by SAC Holdings under a
management agreement, whereby U-Haul receives a management fee equal to 6% of
the gross receipts from the properties.  Management fees of $2,483,000,
$1,860,000 and $1,632,000 were received during fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.  The 6% fee is consistent with the fees received by U-Haul for
other properties managed by U-Haul.

     Management believes that the foregoing transactions were consummated on
terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's-length transactions.

     Inventories are stated net of reserve for obsolescence of $3,321,000 and
$4,217,000 at March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  Certain general and
administrative expenses are allocated to ending inventories.  Such costs
remaining in inventory are estimated at $12,082,000 at fiscal years 1999
and 1998.  For fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, aggregate general and
administrative costs were $566,592,000, $526,431,000 and $511,473,000,
respectively.

     LIFO inventories, which represent approximately 98% of total inventories
at March 31, 1999 and 1998, would have been $4,835,000 and $4,716,000 greater
at March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, if the consolidated group had used
the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method.

     Short-term investments consist primarily of fixed maturities with a
maturity of three months to one year from acquisition date.  Mortgage loans,
representing first lien mortgages held by the insurance subsidiaries, are
carried at unpaid balances, less allowance for possible losses and any
unamortized premium or discount.  Equity investments and real estate obtained
through foreclosures and held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair
value.  U.S. government securities mutual fund is carried at cost which
approximates market value.  Policy loans are carried at their unpaid balance.

     At December 31, 1998 and 1997, mortgage loans held as investments with a
carrying value of $56,898,000 and $73,979,000, respectively, were outstanding.
The estimated fair value of the mortgage loans at December 31, 1998 and 1997
aggregated $60,893,000 and $74,240,000, respectively.  The estimated fair values
were determined using the discounted cash flow method, using interest rates
currently offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings.
Investments in mortgage loans, included as a component of investments, are
reported net of allowance for possible losses of $81,000 and $507,000 in 1998
and 1997, respectively.

     In February 1997, AMERCO, through its insurance subsidiaries, invested in
the equity of a limited partnership in a Texas-based self-storage corporation.
Republic invested $13,500,000 in exchange for a 38% limited partnership and
Oxford invested $11,000,000 in exchange for a 31% limited partnership.  U-Haul
is a 50% owner of a corporation which is a general partner in the Texas-based
self-storage corporation.  AMERCO has a $10,000,000 note receivable from the
corporation.

     AMERCO has a revolving credit loan (long-term) available from
participating banks under an agreement which provides for a credit line of
$400,000,000 through June 30, 2002. Depending on the form of borrowing elected,
interest will be based on the London Interbank Offering Rate (LIBOR), prime
rate, the federal funds effective rate, or rates determined by a competitive
bid.  LIBOR loans include a spread based upon the senior debt rates of AMERCO.
Facility fees paid are based upon the amount of credit line.

     At March 31, 1999, AMERCO had borrowed $25,337,000, representing short-term
borrowings, from its total uncommitted lines of credit of $42,320,000.

     As of March 31, 1999, loans outstanding under the revolving credit line
totaled $297,000,000.  Management intends to refinance the borrowings on a long-
term basis by either replacing them with long-term obligations, renewing or
extending them.

5.  NOTES AND LOANS PAYABLE, continued

     AMERCO has entered into interest rate swap agreements (SWAPS) to
potentially mitigate the impact of changes in interest rates on its floating
rate debt.  These agreements effectively change AMERCO's interest rate exposure
on $85,000,000 of floating rate notes to a weighted average fixed rate of
7.88%.  The SWAPS mature at the time the related notes mature.  Incremental
interest expense associated with SWAP activity was $2,593,000, $2,687,000 and
$3,481,000 during 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

     At March 31, 1999, interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate
notional amount of $85,000,000 were outstanding.  Management estimates that at
March 31, 1999 and 1998, AMERCO would be required to pay $5,674,000 and
$7,000,000, respectively, to terminate the agreements.  Such amounts were
determined from current treasury rates combined with swap spreads on agreements
outstanding.

     During fiscal 1998, AMERCO extinguished $76,000,000 of 10.27% interest-
bearing notes originally due in fiscal 1999 through fiscal 2002.  This resulted
in an extraordinary loss of $4,044,000, net of tax of $2,371,000 ($0.18 per
share).

     In October 1997, AMERCO issued $300,000,000 of Bond Backed Asset Trust
Certificates (BATs).  The net proceeds were used to initially prepay floating
rate indebtedness of AMERCO under revolving credit agreements.  Subsequent to
the funding of the BATs, AMERCO extinguished $255,071,000 of 6.43% to 8.13%
interest-bearing notes originally due in fiscal 1999 through fiscal 2010.  This
resulted in an extraordinary loss of $9,628,000, net of tax of $5,645,000 ($0.44
per share).

     On July 18, 1996, AMERCO extinguished debt of approximately $76,250,000 by
irrevocably placing cash into a trust of U.S. Treasury securities to be used to
satisfy scheduled payments of principal and interest.  As of March 31, 1999 the
remaining amount of debt that is considered extinguished as a result of the
defeasance amounted to $3,000,000.

     Certain  of  AMERCO's credit agreements contain restrictive  financial  and
other  covenants, including, among others, covenants with respect  to  incurring
additional  indebtedness,  maintaining  certain  financial  ratios  and  placing
certain  additional  liens on its properties and assets.   At  March  31,  1999,
AMERCO was in compliance with these covenants.

     The  annual  maturities of long-term debt for the next five years  adjusted
for  subsequent  activity  (if the revolving credit  lines  are  outstanding  to
maturity), are presented in the table below:

6.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     AMERCO has authorized capital stock consisting of 150,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, 150,000,000 shares of Serial Common Stock and 50,000,000 shares
of Serial Preferred Stock.  The Board of Directors (the Board) may authorize
the Serial Common Stock to be issued in such series and on such terms as the
Board shall determine.  Serial Preferred Stock issuance may be with or without
par value.

     AMERCO has issued 6,100,000 shares of 8.5% cumulative, no par, non-voting
Series A (Series A) preferred stock.  The Series A is not convertible into, or
exchangeable for, shares of any other class or classes of stock of AMERCO.
Dividends are payable quarterly in arrears and have priority as to dividends
over AMERCO's common stock.  The Series A is not redeemable prior to December
1, 2000.  On or after December 1, 2000, AMERCO, at its option, may redeem all
or part of the Series A, for cash at $25.00 per share plus accrued and unpaid
dividends to the redemption date.

     On August 30, 1996, AMERCO issued 100,000 shares of its Series B Preferred
Stock with no par value for gross proceeds of $100,000,000.  Dividends are
cumulative with the rate being reset quarterly and have priority as to dividends
over AMERCO's Common Stock.  The Series B Preferred Stock, as amended, is
convertible under certain circumstances into 4,000,000 shares, subject to
AMERCO's prior right to redeem the Series B Preferred Stock, of AMERCO's Common
Stock, $0.25 par value.  As of March 31, 1999, AMERCO has redeemed 75,000
shares.

     On October 14, 1996, AMERCO paid an additional $15,000,000 to L.S. Shoen in
settlement of all outstanding disputes pursuant to a Settlement, Mutual Release
of All Claims and Confidentiality Agreement (Settlement Agreement), dated
October 15, 1996 with AMERCO resolving the lawsuit in the District Court of
Clark County, Nevada.  The settlement resolves a long-standing dispute between
AMERCO and L.S. Shoen regarding L.S. Shoen's entitlement to compensation
pursuant to an alleged lifetime employment contract.

     On December 18, 1996, AMERCO sold 2,250,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.25
par value, to the public for $35.00 per share, receiving net proceeds of
$74,228,000.

     During the year ended March 31, 1997, pursuant to a judgment in the Shoen
Litigation, AMERCO repurchased 12,426,836 shares of Common Stock in exchange for
$84,502,000, funded damages of $228,373,000 and paid statutory post-judgment
interest of $689,000 and placed funds of $48,234,000 into an escrow account
pending the outcome of a dispute involving the entitlement of the plaintiffs to
post-bankruptcy petition date interest.  The treasury share transaction was
recorded net of tax of $80,997,000 for fiscal 1997.

     The plaintiffs included the father, brothers and sisters of Edward J., Mark
V., Paul F. and James P. Shoen who are major stockholders of AMERCO, and Edward
J., and James P. Shoen who are directors of AMERCO.

     On December 31, 1998, in connection with the resolution of one of the
remaining items associated with the treasury stock acquisitions, AMERCO
remitted $6,000,000 plus interest to the plaintiffs in the Shoen litigation.
The payment is reflected, net of taxes, in the Consolidated Statements of
Changes in Stockholders' Equity.

     In light of AMERCO's history of profitable operations, management has
concluded that it is more likely than not that AMERCO will ultimately realize
the full benefit of its deferred tax assets.  Accordingly, AMERCO believes that
a valuation allowance is not required at March 31, 1999 and 1998.  See also Note
15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

     Under the provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1984 (the Act), the balance
in Oxford's account designated "Policyholders' Surplus Account" is frozen at
its December 31, 1983 balance of $19,251,000.  Federal income taxes (Phase III)
will be payable thereon at applicable current rates if amounts in this account
are distributed to the stockholder or to the extent the account exceeds a
prescribed maximum.  Oxford did not incur a Phase III liability for the years
ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996.

     The Internal Revenue Service has examined AMERCO's income tax returns for
the years ended 1994 and 1995.  All agreed issues have been provided for in the
financial statements.

     At  March  31, 1999, AMERCO and Republic have non-life net operating  loss
carryforwards available to offset taxable income in future years of
$236,592,000 for tax purposes.  These carryforwards expire in 2005 through
2012.   AMERCO has alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards of $15,679,000
which do not have an expiration date, but may only be utilized in years in
which regular tax exceeds alternative minimum tax.   The use of certain
carryforwards may be limited or prohibited if a reorganization or other change
in corporate ownership were to occur.

     During 1994, Oxford dividended its investment in Republic common stock to
its parent at its book value.  As a result of such dividend, a deferred
intercompany gain arose due to the difference between the book value and fair
value of such common stock.  However, such gain can only be triggered if
certain events occur.  To date, no events have occurred which would trigger
such gain recognition.  No deferred taxes have been provided in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements as management believes that no
events have occurred to trigger such gain.

10.  TRANSACTIONS WITH FLEET OWNERS AND OTHER RENTAL EQUIPMENT OWNERS

     Independent rental equipment owners (fleet owners) own approximately 8% of
all U-Haul rental trailers and 0.02% of certain other rental equipment.  There
are approximately 2,900 fleet owners, including certain officers, directors,
employees and stockholders of AMERCO.  All rental equipment is operated under
contract with U-Haul whereby U-Haul administers the operations and marketing of
such equipment and in return receives a percentage of rental fees paid by
customers.  Based on the terms of various contracts, rental fees are
distributed to U-Haul (for services as operators), to the fleet owners
(including certain subsidiaries and related parties of U-Haul) and to Rental
Dealers (including Company-operated U-Haul Centers).

     Republic insures and reinsures certain risks of U-Haul customers and
independent fleet owners.  Premiums earned on these policies were $41,000,000,
$49,400,000 and $40,800,000 during the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively.


11.  EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

     AMERCO  participates in the AMERCO Employee Savings,  Profit  Sharing  and
Employee  Stock  Ownership Plan (the Plan) which is  designed  to  provide  all
eligible  employees  with  savings  for  their  retirement  and  to  acquire  a
proprietary interest in AMERCO.

     The Plan has three separate features: a profit sharing feature (the Profit
Sharing  Plan)  under which the Employer may make contributions  on  behalf  of
participants; a savings feature (the Savings Plan) which allows participants to
defer income under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; and  an
employee  stock  ownership  feature (the ESOP)  under  which  AMERCO  may  make
contributions of AMERCO Common Stock or cash to acquire such stock on behalf of
participants.   Generally, employees of AMERCO are eligible to  participate  in
the Plan upon completion of a one year service requirement.

     AMERCO  has arranged financing to fund the ESOP trust (ESOT) and to enable
the ESOT to purchase shares.  Below is a summary of the financing arrangements:

                             Amount outstanding

     Shares are released from collateral and allocated to active employees
based on the proportion of debt service paid in the plan year.  Contributions
to the ESOT charged to expense were $2,804,000, $3,588,000 and $3,570,000 for
the years ended 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

     For purposes of the schedule, fair value of unreleased shares issued prior
to December 31, 1992 is defined as the historical cost of such shares.  Fair
value of unreleased shares issued subsequent to December 31, 1992 is defined as
the March 31 trading value of such shares for 1999 and 1998.

     Oxford insures various group life and group disability insurance plans
covering employees of the consolidated group.  Premiums earned were $1,208,000,
$2,785,000 and $2,370,000 during the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively, and were eliminated in consolidation.

12.  POSTRETIREMENT AND POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS

     AMERCO provides medical and life insurance benefits to retired employees
and eligible dependents over age 65 if the employee meets specified age and
service requirements.

     AMERCO uses the accrual method of accounting for postretirement benefits.
AMERCO continues to fund medical and life insurance benefit costs as claims are
incurred.

     The components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost for 1999, 1998
and 1997 are as follows:

                                                    1999        1998      1997

Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation         7.00%      7.00%     7.50%

     The year-to-year fluctuations in the discount rate assumptions primarily
reflect changes in U.S. interest rates.  The discount rate represents the
expected yield on a portfolio of high-grade (AA-AAA rated or equivalent) fixed-
income investments with cash flow streams sufficient to satisfy benefit
obligations under the plans when due.

     The assumed health care cost trend rate used in measuring the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation was 6.25% in 1999, declining annually to an
ultimate rate of 4.20% in 2013.

12.  POSTRETIREMENT AND POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS, continued

     If the health care cost trend rate assumptions were increased by 1.0%, the
accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of March 31, 1999 would be
increased by approximately $789,000 and a decrease of 1.0% would reduce the
accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by $640,000.

     Postemployment benefits provided by AMERCO are not material.


13.  REINSURANCE

     In the normal course of business, Republic and Oxford assume and cede
reinsurance on both a coinsurance and risk premium basis.  Republic and Oxford
obtain reinsurance for that portion of risks exceeding retention limits.  The
maximum amount of life insurance retained on any one life is $150,000.

     A summary of reinsurance transactions by business segment follows:

                                                                    Percentage

     In connection with Oxford's acquisitions during 1997 as disclosed in Note
20 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the level of life reinsurance
transactions increased as of December 31, 1998.

     Republic is a reinsurer of municipal bond insurance through an agreement
with MBIA, Inc.  Premiums generated through this agreement are recognized on a
pro rata basis over the contract coverage period.  Unearned premiums on this
coverage were $5,300,000 and $5,200,000 as of December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.  Republic's share of case loss reserves related to this coverage
was insignificant at December 31, 1998.  Republic's aggregate exposure for
Class 1 municipal bond insurance was $1,000,000,000 as of December 31, 1998.

     To the extent that a reinsurer is unable to meet its obligation under the
related reinsurance agreements, Republic would remain liable for the unpaid
losses and loss expenses.  Pursuant to certain of these agreements, Republic
holds letters of credit of $8,502,000 from reinsurers.  Republic has issued
letters of credit of approximately $2,500,000 in favor of certain ceding
companies.

     Republic insures and reinsures general liability, auto liability and
workers' compensation coverage for member companies of the consolidated group.
Premiums earned by Republic on these policies were $11,734,000, $19,800,000 and
$19,700,000 during the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, and were eliminated in consolidation.


14.  CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS

     AMERCO uses certain equipment and occupies certain facilities under
operating lease commitments with terms expiring through 2079.  Lease expense
was $118,742,000, $89,879,000 and $85,973,000 for the years ended 1999, 1998
and 1997, respectively.  During the year ended March 31, 1999, a subsidiary of
U-Haul entered into fifteen transactions and has subsequently entered into
three additional transactions, whereby AMERCO sold rental trucks and
subsequently leased back.  AMERCO has guaranteed $115,843,000 of residual
values at March 31, 1999 and an additional $3,801,000 subsequent to March 31,
1999 for these assets at the end of the respective lease terms.  Certain leases
contain renewal and fair market value purchase options as well as mileage and
other restrictions similar to covenants disclosed in Note 5 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements (Note 5) for notes payable and loan
agreements.

                          ===============================================

     In December 1996, AMERCO executed a $100,000,000 Operating Lease Facility
(the Facility) with a number of financial institutions.  Under the Facility,
the lessor acquires land to be developed for storage locations by AMERCO, as
Construction Agent, or acquires existing storage locations with advances of
funds (the Advances) made by certain parties to the Facility.  AMERCO will
separately lease land and improvements, including completed locations
capitalized by the lessor, under the Facility and the respective lease
supplements.  Funding under the Facility totaled $84,270,000 at March 31, 1999.

     The Facility contains certain restrictions similar to those contained in
Note 5.  Upon occurrence of any event of default, the lessor may rescind or
terminate any or all leases and, among other things, require AMERCO to
repurchase any or all of the properties.  The Facility has a three year term,
subject to AMERCO's option, with the consent of other parties, to renew for
successive one year terms.

     Upon the expiration of the Facility, AMERCO may either purchase all of the
properties based on a purchase price equal to all amounts outstanding under the
Advances, including the interest and yield thereon, or remarket all of the
properties to a third party purchaser who may become a subsequent lessor to
AMERCO.

     In the normal course of business, AMERCO is a defendant in a number of
suits and claims.  AMERCO is also a party to several administrative proceedings
arising from state and local provisions that regulate the removal and/or cleanup
of underground fuel storage tanks.  It is the opinion of management that none of
such suits, claims or proceedings involving AMERCO, individually or in the
aggregate, are expected to result in a material loss.  Also see Notes 13 and 15
of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.


15.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     A judgment was entered on February 21, 1995, in the Shoen Litigation
against Edward J. Shoen, James P. Shoen, Paul F. Shoen, Aubrey K. Johnson, John
M. Dodds and William E. Carty,  who were members of the Board of Directors of
AMERCO in 1998.  AMERCO was also a defendant in the action as originally filed,
but was dismissed from the action on August 15, 1994.  The plaintiffs alleged,
among other things, that certain of the individual plaintiffs were wrongfully
excluded from sitting on AMERCO's Board of Directors in 1988 through the sale of
Common Stock to certain key employees.  That sale allegedly prevented the
plaintiffs from gaining a majority position in AMERCO's Common Stock and control
of AMERCO's Board of Directors.  The plaintiffs alleged various breaches of
fiduciary duty and other unlawful conduct by the individual defendants and
sought equitable relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages and statutory
post-judgment interest.

15.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, continued

     Based on the plaintiffs' theory of damages, the court ruled that the
plaintiffs elected as their remedy in this lawsuit to transfer their shares of
stock in AMERCO to the defendants upon the satisfaction of the judgment.  The
judgment was entered against the defendants in the amount of approximately
$461,800,000 plus interest and taxable costs.  In addition, on February 21,
1995, judgment was entered against Edward J. Shoen in the amount of $7,000,000
representing punitive damages.  On March 23, 1995, Edward J. Shoen filed a
notice of appeal with respect to the award of punitive damages and the
plaintiffs subsequently cross appealed the judge's remittitur of the punitive
damages from $70,000,000 to $7,000,000.  Both appeals were denied by the Court
of Appeals of the State of Arizona on July 24, 1997 and the Supreme Court of
the State of Arizona denied review of the case on March 17, 1998.
On July 15, 1998, Edward J. Shoen filed an appeal with the United States
Supreme Court with respect to the award of punitive damages.
On October 5, 1998, the punitive damages award in the Shoen Litigation (which
was subsequently reduced by partial settlement to $6,000,000) became final
when the United States Supreme Court denied certiorari.  On December 31, 1998,
in connection with the resolution of one of the remaining items associated with
the treasury stock acquisitions, AMERCO remitted $6,000,000 plus interest to
the plaintiffs in the Shoen Litigation.  The payment is reflected, net of
taxes, in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders' Equity.

     On February 21, 1995, Edward J. Shoen, James P. Shoen, Aubrey K. Johnson,
John M. Dodds and William E. Carty, who were directors of the Company at that
time, (the Director-Defendants), filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the
federal bankruptcy laws, resulting in the issuance of an order automatically
staying the execution of the judgment against those defendants.  In late April
1995, the Director-Defendants, in cooperation with AMERCO, filed plans of
reorganization in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Arizona, all of which proposed the same funding and treatment of the plaintiffs'
claims resulting from the judgment in the Shoen Litigation.  The plans of
reorganization, as amended and restated on February 29, 1996, were confirmed by
the bankruptcy court on March 15, 1996.  The plans, as confirmed, shall
collectively be referred to as the "Plan".

     On October 17, 1995 AMERCO entered into an agreement (the Agreement) with
the Director-Defendants whereby AMERCO agreed, among other things, to fund the
Plan and to release the Director-Defendants from all claims AMERCO may have
against them arising from the Shoen Litigation.  In addition, the
Director-Defendants agreed, among other things, (i) to release, subject to
certain exceptions, AMERCO from any claim they may have against it pursuant to
any indemnification agreements and (ii) to assign all rights they have under the
Shoen Litigation to AMERCO.

     Pursuant to the Plan, AMERCO repurchased 18,254,976 shares of the
plaintiffs' Common Stock.  As a result, the judgment in the Shoen Litigation was
satisfied in full.  On October 1, 1996, the Director-Defendants emerged from
bankruptcy upon the filing of notice with the bankruptcy court that the
effective date of the Plan had occurred and that the Plan had been performed and
was substantially consummated.

     As of the date hereof, an issue remains regarding whether or not the
plaintiffs are entitled to statutory post-judgment interest at the rate of ten
percent (10%) per year from February 21, 1995 (the date the Director-Defendants
filed for protection under Chapter 11) until the judgment was satisfied.  On
July 19, 1996,  the bankruptcy court ruled the plaintiffs are entitled to such
interest.  The Director-Defendants and AMERCO have appealed the court's
decision.  AMERCO has deposited $48,234,000 into an escrow account to secure
payment of the disputed interest, pending final resolution of this issue
(including all appeals by either side) which has been recorded as an "other
asset" in the Company's consolidated financial statements.  If the interest
issue is decided adversely to AMERCO and the Director-Defendants, the amount
deposited into the escrow account will be transferred to the plaintiffs.
The ultimate outcome of this issue will not have the effect of increasing or
decreasing AMERCO's net earnings, but could reduce stockholders' equity.

     AMERCO has deducted for income tax purposes approximately $324,000,000 of
the payments made to the plaintiffs.  While AMERCO believes that such income tax
deductions are appropriate, there can be no assurance that such deductions
ultimately will be allowed in full.

16.  PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS

     AMERCO's Board of Directors adopted a stockholder-rights plan in July
1998.  The rights were declared as a dividend of one preferred share purchase
right for each outstanding share of AMERCO's common stock.  The dividend
distribution was payable on August 17, 1998 to the stockholders of record on
that date.   When exercisable, each right will entitle its holder to purchase
from AMERCO one one-hundredth of a share of Series C Junior Participating
Preferred Stock (Series C), no par value per share of AMERCO, at a price of
$132.00 per one one-hundredth of a share of Series C, subject to adjustment.
AMERCO has created a series of 3,000,000 shares of authorized but unissued
preferred stock for the Series C stock authorized in this stockholder-rights
plan.

      The rights will become exercisable if a person or group of affiliated or
associated persons acquire or obtain the right to acquire beneficial ownership
of 10% or more of the common stock without approval of a majority of the Board
of Directors of AMERCO.  The rights will expire on August 7, 2008 unless
earlier redeemed or exchanged by AMERCO.

     In the event AMERCO is acquired in a merger or other business combination
transaction after the rights become exercisable, each holder of a right would
be entitled to receive that number of shares of the acquiring company's common
stock equal to the result obtained by multiplying the then current Purchase
Price by the number one one-hundredths of a share of Series C for which a right
is then exercisable and dividing that product by 50% of the then current market
price per share of the acquiring company.

17.  STOCK OPTION PLAN

     AMERCO's stockholders approved a ten year incentive plan entitled the
AMERCO Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the Plan) for officers and key
employees in October 1992.  No stock options or awards have been granted under
this plan to date.

     The aggregate numbers of shares of stock subject to award under the Plan
may not exceed 3,000,000.  The stock subject to the Plan is AMERCO Common Stock
unless prior to the date the first award is made under the Plan, a Committee of
at least two Board members determines, in its discretion, to utilize another
class of AMERCO stock.  The features of the Plan are:

     Incentive Stock Options (ISO's) - as defined under the Internal Revenue
     Code and Non-qualified Stock Options under such terms and conditions as
     the Committee determines in its discretion.  The ISO's may be granted at
     prices not less than one-hundred percent of the fair market value at the
     date of grant with a term not exceeding ten years.

     Stock Appreciation Right (SAR's) - subject to certain conditions and
     limitations to holders of options under the Plan.  SAR's permit the
     optionee to surrender an exercisable option for an amount equal to the
     excess of the market price of the common stock over the option price when
     the right is exercised.

     Restricted Stock Award - a specified number of common shares may be
     granted subject to certain restrictions.  Restriction violations during a
     specified period result in forfeiture of the stock.  The Committee may, at
     its discretion, impose any restrictions on a Restricted Stock award.

     Dividend Equivalents - in connection with options.  Dividend Equivalents
     are rights to receive additional shares of stock at the time of exercise
     of the option to which such Dividend Equivalents apply.

     Performance Share - deemed to be the equivalent of one share of stock and
     credited to a Performance Share account to be maintained for each Holder.
     The value of the shares at time of award or payment is the fair market
     value of an equivalent number of shares of stock.  At the end of the award
     period, payment may be made subject to certain predetermined criteria and
     restrictions.

18.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     AMERCO has related party transactions with certain major stockholders,
directors and officers of the consolidated group as disclosed in Notes 2, 6, 10
and 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

     During the years ended 1999, 1998 and 1997, AMERCO purchased $3,070,000,
$2,816,000 and $3,281,000, respectively, of printing from a company wherein an
officer is a major stockholder, director and officer of AMERCO.

     During the year ended 1997, AMERCO purchased $11,164,000 of computer
components from a company wherein a major stockholder was the family trust of a
major stockholder, director and officer of AMERCO, until June 1, 1996.

     On July 7, 1997, AMERCO executed an agreement with Sophia Shoen whereby
AMERCO paid $1,250,000 to Sophia Shoen to settle an arbitration proceeding
entitled JAMS-ENDISPUTE Link No. 940517195 and to terminate a Share Repurchase
         --------------
and Registration Right Agreement.  Sophia Shoen is a major stockholder of
AMERCO.

     Management believes that these transactions were consummated on terms
equivalent to those that prevail in arm's-length transactions.

premium volume is primarily from the sale of credit life and disability
products.  NAI owns all of the issued and outstanding common shares of North
American Fire & Casualty Insurance Company, a property and casualty insurance
company.  In December 1998, North American Fire & Casualty Insurance Company was
sold to Republic.

      On November 24, 1997, Oxford purchased all of the issued and outstanding
shares of Safe Mate Life Insurance Company, for $2,243,000.  As of November 1,
1998, Safe Mate merged into Oxford.  Safe Mate's business was the sale of credit
life and disability products.  These purchases greatly increase Oxford's
distribution channels and enhance administrative capabilities in these markets.

                                    NOTES TO SUMMARY OF EARNINGS OF INDEPENDENT TRAILER FLEETS

                                                                  Additional Information

(A)  The accompanying Summary of Earnings of Independent Trailer Fleets includes the operations of trailers under the brand name of
      "U-Haul" owned by Independent Fleet Owners.  Earnings data represent the aggregate results of operations before depreciation
      and taxes.  Investment data represent the cost of trailers and investments before accumulated depreciation.

      Fleet Owner income is based on Independent Rental Dealer reports of rentals transacted through the day preceding the last
      Monday of each month and received by U-Haul International, Inc. by the end of the month and Company-Operated U-Haul Center
      reports of rentals transacted through the last day of each month.  Payments to Fleet Owners for trailers lost or retired from
      rental service as a result of damage by accident have not been reflected in this summary because such payments do not relate
      to earnings before depreciation and income taxes but, rather, investment (depreciation).

      The investment data is based upon the cost of trailers to the Fleet Owners as reflected by sales records of the U-Haul
      manufacturing facilities.

(B)  The summary of earnings data stated in terms of amount per $100 of average investment represents the aggregate results of
      operations (earnings data) divided by the average amount of investment during the periods.  The average amount of investment
      is based upon a simple average of the month-end investment during each period.  Average earnings data is not necessarily
      representative of an individual Fleet Owner's earnings.

(C)  A summary of operations expenses charged directly to Independent Fleet Owners follows:

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     AMERCO, a Nevada corporation, was incorporated in April, 1969, and is the
holding company for U-Haul International, Inc., Republic Western Insurance
Company, Oxford Life Insurance Company and Amerco Real Estate Company.  The
financial statements of the Registrant should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in this Form 10-K.

     AMERCO is included in a consolidated Federal income tax return with all of
its U.S. subsidiaries.  Accordingly, the provision for income taxes has been
calculated for Federal income taxes of the Registrant and subsidiaries included
in the consolidated return of the Registrant.  State taxes for all subsidiaries
are allocated to the respective subsidiaries.

     The financial statements include only the accounts of the Registrant (a
Nevada corporation), which include certain of the corporate operations of
AMERCO.  The debt and related interest expense of the Registrant have been
allocated to the consolidated subsidiaries.  The intercompany interest income
and expenses are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

2.  GUARANTEES

     AMERCO has guaranteed performance of certain long-term leases.  See Note
14 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
