On the way to his new owner...

They couldn't drive it away?


Shipping it to a relative quite a distance away, didn't feel like
driving it there and flying back, and shipping it was actually about the
same price, when you add in gas, meals, overnight stay and plane ride back.


Interesting. I have never shipped a car but it seems pretty popular
with the snow birds here. My wife says auto carriers will drop a whole
load at her gate. I guess they "club up" together to fill a truck.

What did it cost?


$350 to bumfuch, tennessee, for the truck driver, plus $129 for the
booking agent. About 600 miles. The one way airfare was about $250.

There's some sort of bidding process for the drivers, which the agent
handles. Very friendly people, Florida based. I'll email you the contact
info if you want.
