Best vehicle to transport Giant Scale

I have a 2012 Nissan Pathfinder with a 4.0L v6. It has three row of seats, the rear two as well as the front passanger seats lay totally flat. I can get two 35% plans in here with room for support equipment to boot. What makes it perfect is the factory towing package. This thing pulls my 6X12 trailer with ease. But 2012 was the last year they made the pathfinder on a truck frame. Now sure what the newer models are like.

The newer models are externally an eyesore IMHO it feels like Nissan hired a Mazda designer.

42% PAU Extra in my 2005 Explorer, with the rudder on:) ! Easier fit is my Comp Arf 3.1m Extra. I recommend a van, it's a great compromise when you can't store a trailer.
I had a 1998 Chrysler Town and Country. I could fit three models in it, a 35%, 30% and a small electric. Only drawback was it was an early version and I had to remove the seats.

I assume that you took the stabs off to fit that PAU?

I carried a Dalton 300, Carden Extra 330, Comp ARF MX2 all 40% in my 2000 model Explorer 4dr. Not all at the same time, but you catch the jest. But stabs had to come off. Even numerous 35% airplanes as well. It was my only vehicle at the time, and I racked up the miles travelling.

Now that's some redneck engineering there!:way_to_go:
Yup! That thing actually came rolling into my parking lot this morning. He was looking for a generator. Said he lives in it full time! He said he's on his way north this moring cause it was getting too hot in Oklahoma.
