A live impala? I heard they run very fast.

We were very fortunate to have a trailer donated to us several years ago, and another sponsor donated the vinyl wrap that makes it look so cool.

For our travel to Atlanta 2 years ago, and Virginia last year, we rented a Sprinter Van from a local rental agency. We convinced them to give us a break on the mileage charge as sponsors of the team - they were very nice about it.

The Sprinter gets about 27 MPG on Diesel at 65 MPH, can easily carry 3 or 4 teams' worth of stuff, has a high roof (over 7') and really wide doors. I think for Virgina it cost us a few hundred dollars, most of that being mileage costs, so for a closer competition it may be quite reasonable.
