Thanks for all of the replys.
Good news is the cops found the truck. Bad news is they broke the core in the steering column. I was able to turn the key twice. First time it started but it ran rough. Noticed it was out of gas. (That's when they ditched it). Went and bought a gallon, cycled the key to prime it but couldn't get the key to turn after that. Oh well.
On that note the cop said the crooks have figured out its really easy to punch in the core in the door on these trucks (mines a 2006 f350) and jimmy the core on the steering column. So if you have a truck of that era, you might consider extra security measures i.e. "The club " or a kill switch.
As far as borowing another truck, the two vehicles that will be with us that are capable are already pulling trailers.
I did find that enterprise does rent 3/4 and full tons for towing. I'm calling them today. Internet price is 105 a day for 3/4 ton. Not sure if I want to spend that. Insurance will only cover 25 a day.
I' have already been so busy at work and dealing with this, I haven't had time to search out transwest or any of the others noted.
As noted earlier, we might have to go back to how we started and break out the tent.
