Like the title says, I'm moving from MD to WA in January. I've got an 08 Ranger XLT with the 4 banger, plus some all terrains and a truetrac in the back. I figured I'd just rent a U-haul, load it up and go. The problem is, due to availability I think I'm going to have to rent a 6x12 trailer, which is going to put me pretty close to the 4800lbs max that my Ranger is rated to tow.
Guess I'm just looking for advice, any care or maintenance I should take care of before going, or someone telling me I'm nuts. Anyone ever hauled that much weight for 3500 miles? How was getting over the Rockies?
