azhunter42 Report post Posted August 4, 2021 I have a 1971 cj5 that I need towed from Colorado back to Arizona. I figured I can do it with my truck and rent a uhual car transport. Just weighing out the cost on both. Anyone know of transport? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muledeerarea33? Report post Posted August 4, 2021 Go talk to your local dealership. They’ll know several transport people and might be able to put yours on the same trailer if it’s going to az Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ohthatguy Report post Posted August 4, 2021 Uship "can" be a great deal. If it runs and drives and you are flexible on the times/dates, someone will use it as a filler and do it fairly cheap. If you are on a tight schedule, I'd look elsewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It runs and drives but almost 1k miles one way is alot to put on that Ole jeep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As long as they can drive it up on or into a trailer, it makes it quick and easy for them to load. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HyNoon Report post Posted August 4, 2021 O ok gotcha, I was curious if the tires would make it as well ... same as my old jeep. I think a trailer rental from uhaul might be the cheapest route if you are able to do it. What part of AZ do you need to get it to and what part of Colorado is it in? You can reply in a pm if you don't want it public. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can reply in a pm if you don't want it public. Uhual has two options. One way from Fort Collins to Glendale is 450.00. Or I can rent the same auto transport here and haul it empty to Colorado for 54 a day which is heck of alot cheaper. My second option is what I am leanings towards.

HyNoon Report post Posted August 4, 2021 Ya 54 a day isn't too bad if you are making a trip and you can pull a trailer both ways I think that's a very reasonable option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
