AeroNautical Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 No, not with the Comanche, haha. I live in South Carolina, but on an extended contract here in Midland Texas. It's about 1700 miles one way. I'm really not wanting to put the wear and tear on my truck to drive all the way back to turn right around after picking it up, do any of you have experience with hauling your RVs by other means? I contemplated uhaul, but their trucks don't have brake controllers, and it would cost me $1600 one way not including fuel. Ideally I'd fly back to SC (free flights through company) and drive it back. Any thoughts on this? Thanks guys. Trailer: 2024 Grand Design 22RBE, about 26 feet long.

Comanche SS Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 You could see about renting a TURO in your area, some times there are one-ton trucks to rent, but you might see they have limited mileage ranges and whatnot. I'm a little confused, you need to go to SC from TX to get your trailer to TX? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not really viable unless I just drive my truck, which I wouldn't do. Just trying to see yalls suggestions, maybe I'm missing an option I hadn't thought about.

89 MJ Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 You might be able to look into a shipping company that will just hook onto it and tow it down for you. I would assume something like that exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeeper_chiefb Posted Friday at 03:03 PM Share Posted Friday at 03:03 PM I used Uship to deliver an enclosed 32' trailer. He just hooked his dually to it and pulled it 900 miles to me. Very reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing crazy, about 5300 pounds dry. 6 hours ago, jeeper_chiefb said: I used Uship to deliver an enclosed 32' trailer. He just hooked his dually to it and pulled it 900 miles to me. Very reasonable.
