    Yep it is a mess to some degree. Might not be worth the cost to tow back but looking at all my options at this point.

    I had this thought as well but I don't know anyone that has own rig. I only talk to people on here honestly. Like to keep to myself and do my own thing, rarely ever ask anyone for help in my life. Very independent. ha ha

    It is a 670 so cant do that but could go on a low boy most likely. Would think that would be too much to do.

    That is what I was talking about earlier if I knew someone or if a power only guy did this.

    Could you rent a semi and a lift? A penske shouldnt be too bad. Maybe $200-300 a day and i know you can get a lift for around $250 a day. 1300 miles if you drive out your 11 is only around 2 maybe 3 days of travel. So call it $1500 to do it yourself

    If I could find a truck to rent I could. So far I haven't found one to be able to get. Might be able to get one without a sleeper.

    Daycabs are still fairly easy to find. Just budget in hotel rooms at $75 a night. Still way cheaper then a wrecker
