Be sure that you have proper liscence (sounds like you need a CDL) . You will need to run with a log book. I would look into tempoary tag to get it home, either where you live or where you bought the truck. Then as others mentioned plan a route and check with each state as to their requirements and if what you plan tto do will work.You might have to adapt your route a little.If you plan to run any toll roads ck tolls ahead of time , it could get expensive. The run a t night thing might work but if you get stopped, break down or have any sort of accident/ problem you'll want your ducks in a row.I'd also call your insurance man when you find out about plates and get insurance too. Be sure the truck doesnt have dyed fuel in it and only buy on -road fuel and save fuel reciepts. My advice is try to run legal as possible , take some tools along , make sure machine is well chained down and everything on truck and trailer is in shape.Good luck.
