I'd just make friends with a glider pilot who has a truck.

Agree completely. Those of us who have a vehicle that can pull a trailer are usually more than willing to use them to help out a fellow glider pilot in need. Offer to buy some gas in addition to the meal if you borrow crew and vehicle. I doubt you will be turned down. Heck, one of our guys loaned his truck to someone to drive 800 plus miles each way to go pick up a glider he had just bought.
