My brother drove up in his f250 from Texas and he got hit on the 198 and it rolled his truck

Anyone have the capabilities to move a large truck like that 9000lbs ish so he  
Can get the truck somewhere to get his parts off it and ie bio diesel kit for  
Next truck

Anyone that does know him he is perfectly fine

If you can rent a trailer from U-Haul, my truck can pull it. I think they are only like $50 a day. Does his truck still have 4 rolling wheels?

I have no problem pulling it for you. Just call U-Haul and rent a trailer, tell them you are going to be pulling an AWD car of some sort, because I think they will not like the idea of a big truck on their trailer, but I have done it before and know they can handle it. And I have towed heavier loads with my truck before.

remember with weight of a trailor and the truck youll be closer to 10000lbs+.  
I know a tow truck guy who could do it, but it wouldnt be cheap.

F250’s, even crew cab diesel 4x4’s are not 9000lbs, more like 6500.
