    I want to bring the '71 to the Gathering this summer. If I can't find a trailer to borrow, I'm going to rent one for the 4-5 days. I've done u-haul in the past, and looked at Penske, any other thoughts?

    Trust me, I would. I drove to Elizabethtown in 2008. I have a driveline vibration that I cannot seem to track down and no hood that will fit yet. I don't get home from deployment until April. I just don't think I'll be able to solve the issues in time for July.

    Is there a big place near you that sells trailers? The ones near me also rent what they sell and at a very good price. I think their thought is if they can get you rent or "test drive" one of them, they might get a sale out of it. :)
