Anyone have any reccomendations for a company to transport a car from Grand Rapids to Cleveland? FedEX will do it in an enclosed carrier for $650. I thought that was decent...and a quick transit time.

Thoughts???

It would be much cheaper to just drive it home. Its only approx 300 miles. I know you said you were going to fly up to look at it, so if you are going to buy it drive it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

Another option is since you are there just rent a 14' U-Hual truck & auto transport trailer if you don't want to drive. The rates on the U-Haul website for a oneway rental is $247 for the truck plus $69 for the transport. I have done this in the past before I had Pickup truck.
