That sounds nasty.

Yes, I think he already have it .... but for important occasions he like to use the original....the best!!
he's got enough kit ... dragging the D3 around behind him as well would be ridiculous !
c'mon DSL ... we're all waiting on an update. hoping for good news..

Leave the D3 there, fly home, get D4, drive back out with trailer (different route this time), collect D3, continue trip.
Sorry to hear of your woes Del
That is an option that hasn't been ruled out. Can a D4 tow a D3 legally, weight wise, plus no idea how to sort out rental.
