Wayne,

Dont know if the hurricane is screwing up your plans, if not have a safe drive down. Looking forward to seeing pics.

Thanks for the well wishes but its canceled for this week. It would be too close to chance. He needed until Friday to finish and I didn't want to deal with leaving there and having the bad weather chasing me up the coast. Not worth the chance after waiting all this time, to possibly endanger us or the car. I'm going to talk to my buddy and see if we can go Monday and come home Wednesday but still depending on the weather.

Sorry to hear about the delay. Better safe than sorry though.

You are better of waiting till after this weekend Wayne. It looks like it might be bit stormy out and definitely not worth risking.

I'd be surprised if it was anything more than just some rain and slight wind anything past the Carolinas. It usually is dead by the time it comes up to New England.

I was also thinking of all the people on the road leaving because of the forced evacuations. It bad enough on the road with out a bunch of p/oed people.

Wayne, since you now have a bit more time....any chance of renting a better trailer from a rental chain like United Rentals? They usually have really overbuilt trailers which are a lot better than what you can rent from U-Haul....Or maybe borrowing a good car trailer from someone?

Rob I asked around and no one has an enclosed or a good open trailer that I know that can let me use it.
I didn't think of United Rental until you mentioned it, but I just checked and they don't have anything and can't get one. At least with the U Haul They have road service all the way down and back and if you think of it a private trailer I'd be on my own with any problems. Although I'll keep trying.

Wayne,
Are you still going to get the car with the weather conditions on the east coast? I'm not sure how close you or the car are to the affected areas.
Please be carefull. Depending on exactly where you need to go, maybe waiting until this thing passes in a few days is safer?

Did you try Penske? I used them when I moved from MA to OR, I had a box truck and towed my GF's Saab behind it. If I remember correctly the trailer was a solid floor.
