MO to UTAH/CA Trip....any parts need a ride? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Skirkpat · 07-17-2009, 11:28 AM

I will be traveling from Kansas City, MO to St. Geaorge Utah at the end of the month....If anyone has parts going that way or back let me know and we could possibly work out a deal on gas money?

I am trying to decide if I am taking the S-10 and truck bed trailer or full size/Flat bed trailer? I will be bringing a bare cab and dissasembled short bed back.

No parts needed here...but have a safe trip.

Skirkpat,
First of all, have a safe trip. If it were me, I would take the fullsize trailer, but thats only me. The cab should fit in the pickup bed trailer sideways, but how many times have you went to pick something up, and there is more you could of bought on the spot ? I remember driving almost 3 hours to pick up a tilt steering column and the guy had 3 or 4 trucks for sale. I ended going back the next day for a parts truck

It just happens to work that way sometimes. Enjoy your roadtrip !

Thanks, and I agree on the bigger trailer, thats kind of why I am hoping that someone has something else going that way or back, I do not know if I will save alot of gas with the S-10 anyway?

Have a safe trip skirkpat!

If I could con a fellow board member to sell me their '72 in Cali, I would have you drag it home for me.

You are one of the only people in the midwest with a truck nicer than you could find in Cali!!!

I will definitely take that as a compliment...

Drive carefully.

If you happen to get to NorCal (San Fran, Sacramento area) give me a holler.
There are probably a couple of us that would like to meet up.

Sean, I may be buying a blazer in Cheyenne, Wy. What would it cost me to get it back here? If you have room? Thanks Randy
