How to bring my Smart home?

I am an 1173 and am awaiting for my phone call. I live almost 300 miles from my dealer in the snowy north. I should be getting my Smart in the next couple weeks and am looking for suggestions on getting it home. I do not want to drive it for 5 hours on snow covered highways for my first ride. I am looking for suggestions on what type of trailer to rent or other suggestions on getting it home. Does anyone have a recommendation for a specific model/type of a rental trailer for my Smart? Thanks for your help.

Dan

Dan,
I see from your profile that you have a tow vehicle (H3), so I would recommend a U-Haul car trailer. I used one from NC to MI and they tow great - aluminum double axle w/ramp. No sweat.

I live about 5 miles from smart center Bloomfield and would be happy to help with arrangement, loading, etc. and would be offended ;) if you did not contact me when you come down state for delivery. I'm also an 1173 and am expecting my new ride soon.

PM me with your phone and we'll stay in touch.
