Trying to get my truck home
I've bought my first m37 & I'm trying to get it home from NJ to IL or close. Uship is too expensive. Anyone traveling this way from out east?

... no one knows where you are located.
Re: Trying to get my truck home
Try the transportation forum over on the Steel Soldiers website. You'll probably be able to set something up there.

The suggestion to check into the Steel Soldiers site is a good one.
You don't say where in NJ or where in ILL. that you need transportation.
Commercial trucking costs can be expensive.
Do you have access to a pickup truck and a trailer?
You might also check with transportation brokers and trucklines
in your area to see what kind of "deal" they might make you.
Ask them if they can offer you a "partial" or "less than truckload" (LTL)
price for a flat bed load.
Loading is easily accomplished with local roll back wrecker services
at each end of the trip.
PM me if you need more info.
