Driving an empty pickup from Las Vegas NV to Eau Claire WI 3/3-3/5Anyone need stuff?

Hello, I'm buying a truck in Vegas and driving it back to Eau Claire. I'm leaving Las Vegas NV in a completely empty pickup truck tuesday the 3rd in the morning, making it to denver in the evening of the 4th hopefully, and eau claire the late late night of the 5th.
This is all assuming it goes well. Trucks been inspected, had a few things done to it prior to this, but I've never seen it or driven it before. "really" excited about something unexpected happening and me being SOL or anything, but, I've driven further before.


I want to know if anyone wants anything moved around like hoods fenders engines tires transmissions ECT, basically anything that will fit in bed of a 04 dakota quad cab short box with a tunno cover. No animals, firearms, or anything illegal, but, if someone wants something moved along the route (I70, I15, and I80) it will be "really" cheap.

Please text me if you want anything. Wont really have much time to run off the interstate much, but willing to meet at a gas station or whatever.

seven one five 450 dash 57sixty

Thanks
~Nate

You havd an empty pickup, internet access, the siren song of craigslist, and a bunch of states to drive through known for lack of rust and road salt crimes against humanity

Id probably arrive home with a project car in tow and a bed of craigslist scores on top of that.

There are going to be some storms rolling thru the mountains this week. If it looks bad, get a room in Grand Junction, don't until you get deep into the mountains.
