    stranded need help ASAP - Reno NV

    I know it's a long shot, but I thought I would put this out to the community. I am currently in an RV park at Bordertown, NV. (15 miles from Reno) We live in Arizona and we were on our way home when our truck broke down. Due to the holiday weekend we must vacate the RV park where we are currently staying by Saturday morning. The only other RV park that can accommodate us is located on Carson City. I am looking for someone in the Reno area that would be willing to transport my 5th wheel from Bordertown to Carson City. (about 50 miles on Saturday 9/1) I will pay. If anyone out there in the Reno area is willing to do this please reply and I will provide my cell phone number.

    You could try one of the commercial haulers like Indiana Transport or Foremost Transport.

    Their driver's go all over and probably have someone in the area locally.

    We are full timers and if we were in the area, I'd do it for free......paying it forward. Besides, that's not a bad drive and no steep grades....and 395 is nice enough.

    Hell, if I were close to Reno, I'd take it all the way home for you, if you paid for my diesel fuel and a night or two in a motel. Hopefully somebody on here will lean in on this and help out. Post on the Grand Design facebook page, also. This is one time that you may want to include your phone number but mix up the numbers so those auto bots don't pick up on it (ie. 916-seven 6 seven- 89 zero zero instead of 916-767-8900).

    Map = states that we've stayed at least one night in our RV.

    travelinman….. I can't do it Sat because of a tight work schedule...… but available today, tomorrow or after work on Friday (after5pm). I'm in Truckee ,CA about 40 miles from Reno. What rig do you have and if you have an Anderson hitch that would be a problem. I assume you tried Grand Sierra's RV Park and the two in Verdi (small town at the state line) Gold Ranch RV/Casino and Boomtown KOA.

    I don't have the equipment to do it, but I wish I could help you out... Have you tried one of the RV dealers? I got my Imagine at Sprad's - they might be able to move it for you for a price. Or at the least they might know someone who can. Their number is 775-852-0606. BTW - I checked with the RV Park at the Grand Sierra Resort and they DO have spaces open - may be able to find someone to move it if it's only a few miles rather than Carson City.

    Tahoe Trekker, please call me at (520)965-6989 or (520)310-7443. Friday evening might work. Truck is being towed to the shop now and if it's simi minor problem I'm hoping they get it back to me by Friday end of day. But, I am not optimistic it's a fairly bad problem. hank you so much for the offer.

    TahoeTrekker is an amazing person in my book. Thank you for stepping up. I know quite a few more people would of done the same here if they were in the area.

    An Andersen hitch coupler on the pin box is easily removable in about 5 minutes.

    I made contact with travelinman….he's trying to make arrangements to either get in the new RV park on Friday or be able to stay until after 5pm on Sat at the park he is in.....just to cover the bases. That way I can help him after work either day...… he doesn't have an Anderson hitch so that's no problem. He is still hoping he gets the truck back on Friday end of day..... so I'm on standby.....lol
