Planning a run from south North Carolina (Charlotte area), to Phili, PA soon to grab a '66 mustang. I'm going for a full size car hauler, as the 66 hasn't moved under it's own power since '81, and hasn't moved at all since ~'93.
I know my mileage is gonna tank on the way home, but any advice on how to "minimize" the wear on the ram? I'm at about 67k on it, running PP, swapping to PUP on the next change. I know hauling can be a lot of work on a truck, so just trying to make sure I don't do anything to massively decrease the life.
North bound will likely be 2-3 adults, a couple overnight bags, some car dollies, and a decent jack, so maybe an extra 800#, rent a trailer when I'm up there, and bring it all home.
Dollies are incase the mustang won't roll 30' onto the trailer.
I have a rebel, with bags.
