| Post subject: | Looking for a Truck and Trailer for Hire |
Anybody know where to find a Truck and Trailer that I can hire to tow a vehicle to friend to work on for me? Hertz can't help...waiting on a response from AVIS. I have a number of someone that I can hire to do it for me...but I'd like to keep it as cheap as possible. |

Meh...should have clarified that I need to go a pretty damn good it of distance. My buddy will do it for 400€...I think that if I hired a company the cost could approach 500€. I figure if I rent the vehicle and trailor...with our gas costs I could get it done for around 250€. |

Have a close look on the included miles for the truck, my last adventure with the trailer became pretty expensive as only 750ks were included and i drove 1000...  The van was about 180EUR (3.5t Mercedes), if i remember right, the trailer 50EUR (from a repair shop, big rentals don´t have trailers... got it for free as i work for them sometimes)

There is a place near Ramstein, check out Ronalds auto agency. The trailer rent is usually about 50€ a day. Then somebody I know might be willing to do it for $ instead of €. From where to where (distance) and when? |

I need to take my Syclone up north to my friend's place in Valthermond, NL. Distance is about 4hrs. Here is the city: http://www.maporama.com/share/Map.asp?SESSIONID={E9661039-5061-4BD5-BD35-1D1829E646D1}&ZoomSet=9 |

# 1 - truck down/waiting for parts # 2 - said: not in the weather like this, maybe when snow is gone (sorry, you know US do not all like snow) # 3 - waiting for answer I could use my truck, but then it would not be much cheaper: german gas price paid in € and I don't have time before March 19. |

-K-...I think the best estimate lies in my friend who I'm bringing the Syclone to. He offered to do it for 400€ which is probably the best offer I will get. That and his barn is where I am having it towed to...so. I'll suck it up and pay. Seeing is how he is doing the work for free. |

I agree. If he is doing the work, he propably is the best choice anyhow. |
