Huge huge favor - can anyone spare a truck?

Post by Tsurara » Tue Jul 10, 2007 1:51 pm

I've been having some real bad luck with my truck lately and I found out today that it won't be fixed until at least next week.

My problem is that I have a big SCCA National race I worked really really hard to get my national license and now have no way of getting there.

I've exhausted my other options, which is why I am asking you guys, I have called every dealer around and nobody even has a hitch attached to their rental trucks. If anyone has a truck they can spare, I am just going to be towing 5400lbs, a 2000lbs open trailer and a 3400lbs Evo. I have a few people that could vouch for me on here I think, and I would gladly pay you for using your trucks, this race means a lot to me so I am really open to any amount of reimbursement at this point.

If any of you can, please send me a PM, I will give you all the details. It's this weekend, I could pick the truck up Fri or Thurs and return it late Sunday or early Monday.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Mickey, thanks for the offer, tried UHaul but they only allow one way for trucks with vehicles in tow.. keeping them as a last resort.

Going to WGI, but I may be set on the truck as President Alex has offered his up for the weekend.
