I was messing around on the uhaul site and if I said it was a v6 it would allow me to pull it, but a v8 was a no go. Not sure what engineis even in it so I'm still fact finding.
As far as having it hauled, I'm not sure he's willing to go that route either. I think this may need to be a learning experience for him. He also mentioned a friend of his girl friends step dad is in La and tedious cars for a living, blah blah blah and is thinking about bringing it over there to have him swap the engine for him. To me that seems to be an awful lot of hassle and I'll try my hardest to convince him to just find a shop here to do the swap, or do it himself.
More or less, like I said, I think this may just be a learning experience for him. I told him right away that he would be paying the gas and trailer rental. I'll throw some figures together for gas mileage for him to ponder before committing. I know hauling hay 1/2 loaded 1/2 empty I got around 9 mpg. And I think the hay was a little heavier (I know the trailer sure was) and was for sure a whole lot less aerodynamic
In the end, if we do go together I'm not just hopping in the truck without some serious planning and possibly some gas money up front.
