More D Report post Posted April 27, 2008 I came up to Mesa for the weekend with family and yesterday I went up to Cottonwood to buy a Ranger XT. I borrowed a utility trailer to go pick it up and I thought at the time I could borrow the trailer all the way to Tucson but the owners plans have changed. Now I have a brand new Ranger here in Mesa with now way to take it home to Tucson. HA, my wife is making fun of me for buying it before I figured how to take it home!! My problem is that yesterday I got back into the Phx area at 3pm most places had already closed. I even went to Bass Pro shops and they only have the 7x 14 built and not the 7x12 and the mechanics "all ready went home and don't work on Sunday" That is from the "shop" manager, what customer service! Any one know of a place I could buy a trailer, 6x12ish on Sunday here in Phx? I have looked on Craigs list and found a few but I don't have a way to get to my money(cash) on a Sunday. I am in west Mesa now and I heard that Apache Jct has a bunch of places but I don't know if they are open on Sunday's. Does Cabelas sell utility trailers?? Thanks for reading and helping out.

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted April 27, 2008 Go to bass pro and buy the bigger one. I have never heard anyone complain about having "too much room" on a trailer.... Ice chests, tents etc. I guarantee you if you buy the bigger trailer, you will find a way to fill that extra space up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IHunt2live Report post Posted April 27, 2008 Go to Harbor Freight Tools and buy one of their trailers with 12 inch tiers. Just stay below 15mph and avoid any bumps and it should suit you just fine. I'm sorry to make light of your situation. But I would agree with Casey, I don't think you could be disapointed with more room. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BuckNasty Report post Posted April 28, 2008 streetlegalize it and drive it home. What he said. You can obtain a 3 day temporary permit from the DMV to drive a car/truck that is not yet registered. With a VIN number, you can even print one from the DMV's website. You can also get one from some of the Checks Cashed stores in town. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
More D Report post Posted April 29, 2008 Not sure what kind of mileage I could get out of the Ranger, don't think the 9 gal gas tank would make it home to Tucson. Well boys I got my 'mulita' home I ended up finding a trailer on craigslist I did have to borrow some cash but I was able to buy it and got home late last night. I did try and go back to Bass pro Shops and buy the 14ft trailer but the store manager said "oh, we don't sell the trailers that are out front, just whats on them ??? Seriously! They belong to the manufacture not the store. Again I even tried Cabelas and they could not sell me one on a Sunday because 'the guy' isn't there on Sunday to do the registration . Most places that sell trailers in the Phx area don't open on Sundays. Home Depot's didn't seem strudy enough for a 1200lb Ranger. Any way we are happy to have our new toy home. I will post pics later when I can take 'er out. My back yard does her no justice. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
