Hey man, I did it, did a local rental and a car trailer, (unlimited mileage of course) Penske or Ryder, ..NOT Uhaul..drove from Cedar Rapids, Ia to Ft. Wayne, Indiana to pick up a wrecked 5 series Bimmer. That is through Chicago, during rush hour..broken passenger mirror on the truck...NO PRIOR TOWING EXPERIENCE..I think evrybody lived..not sure about those folks in the mini van.. but my point is, You can do it! I think $300-$400 bucks and I was back home that night. (BTW, Get the insurance)
That is a one heck of a story.

I really appreciate the advise. I am considering.
