That would need to be a 2-week trip so that I could take my time getting out there, wheel and then take my time back.


Can your trailer tow two trucks?

No.. it's almost long enough, but my truck wouldn't be able to get the job done.

However, maybe it's worth thinking about renting a truck that could do both and use that.


I?m thinking we should see what a multi truck trailer would cost.

I'll start checking around to see what it'd cost to rent the equipment needed to get the trucks to MOAB.

We need someone with a CDL and a truck for a week or so.

I'm liking the idea of renting a truck that can tow/trailer a couple of rigs for getting out there.

I've found one site that can rent rigs, but will keep shopping around because, if we can drag two trucks, then Tom and I (and others) can get this planned out and make the trip

Here's a place that is right now listed for hire, but maybe their trailer could be rented or something.

How did my name come up for this? LOL

I am actually in the process of getting my Class A CDL.
If all goes as planned I will have it in April.

We?re planning to rent a rig large enough to haul five or six of our trucks to MOAB next year. You would be driving the truck while the rest of us will be following you in rented mobile homes.

I had mine, until it expired six years ago. Too many liabilities with a CDL, even when driving your own, private vehicle.
