Hey guys/gals,
As some of you know, I've been working on buying a home in Denver/Atlanta for the Past 1.5 years. Due to Job circumstances and market we never executed on either (quite frustrating). Well, after looking at over 100 houses we finally signed a contract on Sunday on our way back from Silverton
I now have 4 trucks in my stable, 1 mini that has it's engine half torn out, 1 fj40 that runs fine, 1 lx450, and 1 tacoma. I plan on towing the mini with the Penske truck. My wife will drive the tacoma (bad clutch right now, so no towing for it), that leaves the fj40 and the lexus needing a "ride". I was thinking of having my friend david drive the lx450 w 35" tires (instead of 37") while flat towing the 40. Right now I'm geared at 4.88 and the drive is a pretty straight 580 miles...so I don't think the lx450 will have that great of an issue (Ali recently did this from Chicago to Alberquerque towing a Cherokee and said he did not have major issues).
Ideally I would like to have as many rigs as I can flat bed towed within reasonable cost. Do any of you have any suggestions or services you can offer? What kind of cost could I be looking at? I've got quotes coming in from professional auto transport places and they are bit out of my range.
...on a second note, if anyone is interested...my house in Shawnee is up for sale. large 3 car garage, 220 outlet, tall ceilings, etc.
later,
Kumar
