    You can pick up a nice straight truck, for about 3 grand, the only thing Be sure its under 26000lbs, if not, You need a CDL, also With a Commerical Truck of such weight You would also need a DOT, and You've to register for drug testing.. Dammit,

    But here the thing, I've been pulling around my truck with a trailer for years, and I'm like this is crazy... TOO much Work, got me a flat bed dump truck.. SWEET.... I can throw my steel in it, and haul up to 20 tons, or load My pallets of goodies and take it to My buyer, or I can just use it for a swimming pool... Yip thats right.. A Swimming pool on wheels ..



    So Trailer, if You can't afford a truck best bet. otherwise.. TRUCK.
