All: Planning ahead for Okteenerfest in TN this fall. Put out feelers to borrow or rent a lightweight car trailer form the local chapter but no dice. My two options are U-haul, heavy, easy to secure the car, but a real pain with the little bit of ground clearance.
The second option is a tilting flatbed equipment trailer. Easy loading, but I'm not sure how I would be able to safely secure the car. Unlike the Uhaul, the flatbed only has tie down access along the sides, designed for regular ratchet straps. Where the Uhaul uses strap harnesses to hold the front wheels tight to the deck Any input is appreciated. Driving isn't in the cards, 500 plus miles each way and I would need a stretcher! |
