keninman Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 No further than it is I would insure the car, have someone drive down with me, do the paperwork and drive it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If would make the drive - yes. Always better to put your money in your car rather than in someone else’s pocket. That is not just a 500 mile trip - someone has to drive to the pickup location and from the drop off location which can add up to a round trip in total miles driven.

Robert Street Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 None of the commercial haulers monitor sites like ours for transport business you have to call them as there are many transporters out there. Just had a car hauled from Miami to here in (enclosed hauler) about 4 days from the first contact so they can be quick in some cases. robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keninman Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 (edited) I borrowed a Jeep and trailer from my sister and drove about 800 mile round trip to pick up my Stude. BTW, I did the trip alone. Edited September 12, 2018 by keninman (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C Carl Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Glad you made it before your date with Florence, Bob. I hope you all are prepared for the heavy weather, and will be as safe and dry as possible. - Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keninman Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 No Robert the car came from Michigan. I first had to drive over 200 mile round trip to pick up the Jeep and Trailer near Vincennes, IN then return home to Greenfield, IN. I then drove to a town above Flint, Michigan that I cannot remember the name of, then back to Greenfield. Later I had to return the Jeep and trailer to Vincennes and drive back home. It was a lot of traveling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

padgett Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Just shows that Jeeps (and particularly Grand Cherokees) make great tow cars (plug). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
