OR BUYING IS THE ONLY OPTION.

Call a real wrecker, it'll be cheaper & faster than finding a 5th wheel wrecker for a one time project, or you could find someone with a double drop RGN trailer to haul the truck in question.

Here are two companies you might wanna check out. I've used Cold Iron once..great results. The other just came up in a search, but looks promising.

When I used Cold Iron, it cost me about .90/mile to have a truck delivered to my driveway. They furnish fuel, tags, insurance and the works. Fuel surcharge will be higher now though.
