I want to bring my Model5B but I've no idea how we would even get it out of the car if I did bring it. It's probably about 400 lbs. Any ideas?
If possible, you should rent a Penske truck with a winch in the back and ramp, or an automated lift. Frankie did this last year and the year before with no issues whatsoever. Otherwise it could probably take a group of men to lift it out of your car. We can even talk about this on Discord if you need more tips or help. Shoot me a DM anytime!

I don't know that seems really expensive to rent a big truck for about 4 four days. Maybe I could rent a trailer or something.
Federal Enterprises Model 5B (Sold), 3 Pianos, 86' Honda Spree, and just way too many Player Piano Rolls.

See all of those things here lol: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGOuOR ... VWYOVt6KOw

I meant to say that, but do you or someone you know own a truck that can haul the trailer?

Maybe I'll bring the 7T and try to run it... That thing's got a ruined motor as far as I know, but it's worth a shot.

It all depends on what type of car you have. I have a Dodge Grand Caravan and what I usually do is strap down my model 5 on a two-wheeled dolly and walk it down a ramp system. I usually use a reinforced board of wood. Also, make sure you have something to hold the ramp in place so that it does not slide out from underneath you due to the weight of the siren.

If you get it from U-Haul you would need to have a hitch installed on your vehicle which could cost a lot

Clearly you misread the announcement. As it always has been and ever will be, it's held at the Tesomas Scout Camp in Rhinelander, WI.
