Moved into our new place on Friday. My wife and I did the whole move ourselves. The logistics of hiring movers in a pandemic was too complicated, and we have plenty of free time anyway.
The Rover handled two heavy trailer loads without breaking a sweat. Granted we only moved two miles away and didn’t go above 25 mph. I would estimate the first load was close to 5,000 lbs. The trailer alone is 2,000.

The second load was just furniture and the mattress up top. We saved $$$ by doing it ourselves but I’m still incredibly sore I’m also embarrassed at the sheer volume of things that we own at a fairly young age. I’ve always said I don’t want to be pack rats like my parents are. I think it’s beyond control at this point.
