Serious dilemma.
So my wife was going Thursday to pick up our new camper with a family friend and her dad since I am still overseas, well mother nature has thrown a wrench in that plan so now she has no one to go with...

Congrats on the new rig.
No way I would let her or anyone else do this by themselves and in bad weather. It not really can she do it or will the truck/trailer be well prepared, it is the safety factor of weather and something new. If there is a problem will she be able to handle it by herself? blown tire, loose tires, bad hitch, loose axles, ice and slip offs, etc.... I always bring a buddy when picking up something new that I have no idea about. Just wait until the next opportunity and have her go with someone. No reason to put stress on her just to bring a trailer home to sit.
X2. You would probably want her to help you bring it home (if it could happen that way) so why have her do it alone?
I would have loved to be able to drive and pick it up, but the fact that I am over 6,000 miles away made it very difficult. We had a family friend whom use to be a truck driver go with her and picked it up. They made it back just when the snow was starting to fall. All is well, the camper is now parked in a field covered with snow.
