Just bought Truck Camper- how do I move

For the record, I will wait till get the proper equipment. The full story is I wrecked my truck on way to MN in late November in Kentucky. It took till last week to get fixed from mechanic. We bought a TC in Jax in July, thinking truck would be ready in a week per mechanic. I didn't want to spend $1k on tie downs not knowing if the truck would actually run. As soon as I got confirmation on truck actually fixed and drove home, I called Torklift and they said not in stock and they had to build them. The dealer I bought TC from has called me several times about picking up the unit and I always said I'm coming soon. Well, soon never came, not sure of truck status till end of last week. I called Torklift and their phones were out a day or so because of the fires which the person I spoke with said they were very close to the fires but still open and producing. He will be without power at his house for a week or more he said.
So now I have to wait to get the proper tie downs. Better safe than sorry.
PS- why doesn't the USA suspend putting a man on Mars and the Moon and concentrate on putting out forest fires with the money and effort. I feel for the people of the American West, would much rather have a hurricane than fire anyday.

Thanks for all the comments.

Good plan on waiting for proper equipment. That’s what I did when I got my camper way back when. Longest couple of weeks in my life! Ha!
As for the fires...well...there’s a whole lot more than just $$$ at play. But sticking to the main topic here, enjoy your camper when you finally can get it home safely!
