I did something stupid

If the transport falls through, I could drive a few hundred miles if enough FABO folks could get together for a relay system. Say somewhere east of Chicago to Rhode Island.

if push comes to shove i could do michigan city or la port to toledo or so...that would be an 8 hour round trip for me

the only way i see this working is if all the drivers have their own truck, and the OP figures out a trailer or a tow dolly

A buddy of mine had an interesting tactic he employed when he built 2 houses on his property.
He bought a tractor, forklift and scissor lift when he needed them, used them, then sold them once he was done. In each case, he just about broke even on the equipment, making it about the same as a free rental.
My point?
One could theoretically buy or borrow a Ram 1500 and buy a tow dolly and make the trip IF they had the free time.

in todays market that requires a lot of liquid assets...and the OP allready mentioned he cant get the time off to bring it home, let alone shop for a tow vehicle
