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??? |

I got a call from a buddy that owns the local Saab dealership this morning, so I asked him. He put me in touch with the guy that doeas all their transporting, and he'll do it for me...for only $300! (in a covered vehicle no less!)
Here's the scenerio as I see it... 350mi = 6hrs each way (at LEAST one by myself) January = Salt, snow and slush (things I didn't want to expose the car to) Car = 2000ish lbs / 32yrs old Michigan & Ohio = Snowbelt in January (See above) Wasn't worth the gamble for me. I could see the headlines now... Man dies in yellow sports car day before his 30th birthday bring his present home....news at 11. I'll pay the $300.
