Well I was ready to go get it this afternoon, but I just found out someone borrowed our car trailer, and is in illinois with it. Im trying hard to find someone else with a trailer, but I have to be at work in 2 hours and wont be off untill mid afternoon. So I only have 2 hours to find a trailer and confirm with this guy that I am coming.
I asked him if he could explain if there were any symptoms leading to not running such as; Did it die while driving? Did it loose power? or was it sitting and you were unable to get it to restart?

Im considering just going in the 300d with a bunch of tools, the jump pack, a spare battery, and some fuel filters, a thing of diesel 911, and seeing if I could get it started and limp it home.
