Would it not make more sense to drive one of them one way and the other home?


I always question the logic behind paying fuel and insurance for a business, tow rig, and trailer with one vehicle on it (think semi or multi-car hauler) when the cost to simply drive the thing would be a small fraction of the cost to ship. Plenty of unemployed folks right now that would probably jump on it.

My friend Tim Weig at MotoShippers who has shipped a few vehicles for other board members.

We book and ship your item ourselves, we are not a broker. This means that your item will not be handled by multiple parties and your price will never change once it’s booked.

I thought about that except for two things they are over 200 miles apart and the suburban doesn't have air that works and not really interested in driving across the desert without it.

Maybe cheaper to donate the two vehicles and start fresh.

I’m off work and bored, I have a 2020 f450 and a 18’ enclosed trailer, I can get the vw to snowflake. Or if you want both find me a flatbed to pull and I’ll take care of both. Shannon.

I used Tim 3 years ago to transport my 67 GTO from Lancaster Ca to Mohave Valley Az..
Enclosed trailer, he treated my Goat as if it were going to SEMA.
Ritchey, thanks again for the hook up.

@Jefftowz has done a few jobs for some clients of mine, with great success and solid commentary on his professionalism and setup.

I would recommend him %100.

 

[RitcheyRch]

Glad he worked out for you. He is a good guy, military vet and great family man.

Now we're talking! @waterboy can use his $90K truck and buy a $9500 trailer to make money hauling 2 cars with a cummulative value of $5000 a grand total of 400 miles.

You were on a roll there except it almost 1200 miles total

No it's not...it's more like 800. So in light of that...we need at least a MDT to tow it with.

 

[H20 Toie]

Well i'm flying out tomorrow (wednesday ) to Prescott and driving the suburban home

Thanks Blown32 for going and checking it out for me, that was super nice

Needs some TLC but ran great. i got home just before 3am.

I just don't understand why people don't clean things first before trying to sell them

You see vehicles advertised all the time with Fast Food wrappers and soda cans all over and the Ash Trays full of Butts.

Well it cleaned up pretty damn good

My favorite is a “it’s worth $10K, but because it only needs a $30 sensor to be perfect...I’m only asking $3000.”
