I understand why driving it might seem a lot of trouble, but towing it will be more unless you have a real big truck up front.
I've hauled several 1-1/2- and 2-ton trucks on my 18 foot car trailer with a 1-ton and a 3/4-ton pickup up front. Every time I do it I swear I won't do it again. The last time I did it, with the 3/4-ton pickup doing the towing (my 1-ton was totaled late last year) I ended up towing no faster than the old truck on the trailer would have gone if it ran. I would have felt safer driving the old truck.
The suggestion that the lead truck weigh at least as much as the load is one I agree with, especially when the load has no brakes.
