Since we won't have anywhere to put our stuff when we first get to the farm, we bought a 26 foot 1989 International truck from UHaul. With a recently overhauled engine and transmission, we trust it will get us there without incident. We'll be able to just leave our stuff in it while we build the garage/apartment and perhaps even the house, and then either sell it or use it as a farm truck. Since we picked it up for $2800, it's not that much more than we would have paid to rent one!
