aknavy Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 Hmm..Uhaul with car trailer for one car, spouse drives the other. If they aren't using a Uhaul, then they could use Uship to ship them. If you're flexible on dates, you can get decent rates. Quote 2001 VNL 660 2018 DRV Fullhouse JX450 2018 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Dreamer Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 Does one vehicle have the towing capacity to tow the other one on a dolly or open car hauler? When we moved from Indiana to MN we had 5 vehicles and a trailer to move and only 4 drivers. We pulled the trailer with one vehicle and the car went on a tow dolly behind another vehicle.

rickeieio Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 Sell the salt riddled vehicles in NH and replace them with rust free units in AZ. Use the fuel savings to help offset sales tax, etc. Quote KW T-680, POPEMOBILE Newmar X-Aire, VATICAN Lots of old motorcycles, Moto Guzzi Griso and Spyder F3 currently in the front row Young enough to play in the dirt as a retired farmer. contact me at rickeieio1@comcast.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix2013 Posted April 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 It's a "fluid situation", my understanding is that there will be also a trailer being pulled behind the rental truck. My son in not "impressed" with his partners interstate driving. The trial trip was to and from the HDT Rally. I've seen small drive on car carriers (for 2-3 cars) pulled behind pickups, I'm wondering if those are available for interstate transport hire?

But the drive on trailers only fit on car. Quote 2001 VNL 660 2018 DRV Fullhouse JX450 2018 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darryl&Rita Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 As Rickeieio said, unless they're rare collector cars, sell them and replace in the valley. Smog testing is just 1 of the expenses importing a vehicle to AZ. Insurance is cheaper, tags are probably a wash. The volume of used vehicles down there will blow your hair straight back. Or, ruffle the peach fuzz.
