On the trailer question: How long is the wheel base of the truck? I would think that one with a "regular" length wheel base would fit on the trailer, but if it has a long wheel base or the box/bed extends way over the rear wheels, you may come up short. If the truck will fit on the trailer, I would say that's the way to go.

Last week I was in the same spot you are in now. I had purchased an old implement truck that was about 200 miles away. Drove my little truck up there and loaded it on the big truck. The drive home was uneventful, but every little noise, smell, etc. got the pucker factor on high alert. My little truck was about like a flea on a dog as far as weight goes, and after 200 miles of bouncing and bumping I was glad to be home. Gave me a renewed respect for those who drove a truck for a living before air ride cabs, seats, etc. The most important piece of equipment you could bring along with you is your cell phone. That way you could call and get help if there is trouble. Good luck. Your are coming close to getting a full operation going!
