Muskie rod recommendation

My brother in law is pestering me to go Muskie fishing with him. I am planning on getting a Calcutta 400 reel but haven’t a clue about the rod. I want a two piece that can throw at least 3oz lures. Went to LeBarons and got zero help. They told me that two piece rods do not exist. I find this puzzling as most small cars will have trouble getting a seven foot rod inside… Can any of you recommend one. Thanks.

Fenwick makes a 2 piece musky trolling rod. As well, Shimano and Okuma have telescopic musky rods. I have them in stock at Paddletales.

I am far from an expert, but I use one of these:

It was given to me by a neighbor that was cleaning out his garage. I put a Penn reel on it and it works great. It is a one piece, but I find it fits fine in vehicles.
