cky89 and myself are looking for someone with a truck and dolly or trailer to drive us to northen new jersey. He needs to pick up a jetta front end and i need to pick up a car. PM me if you can/want to help out and how much $$ you’d want including gas. thank you!
i got a truck but no trailer
i could rent one. its between 650-700 miles round trip i believe so if you could pm how much youd want thatd be great. thanks!
use my tow bar works great
towing that far on a tow bar is a retarded idea, better off renting a trailer from u-haul or something
thats what ill probably end up doing. it was like 50 bucks for a full size trailer when i got my EF from rochester
haha dude i went all the way to massachusetts with that bar and brought back a chevy blazer and it worked fine just gotta know wht ur doing.
for the dolley its $40 bucks. and they do not rent to explorers.
Hopefully we have something lined up for the 22nd…
get a hitch for a 2000 blazer and ill do it
I’ll see what u-haul has tomorrow
see how much it is to ship the car first! it might only bee a few hundo
find a closer car :gotme: do the u-haul
my buddy just had a car shipped from georgia to cleveland for $400 in case you wanted to go that route
At 700 mi even with a diesel at 15 mpg that’s what 35ish gallons. At $3.95/4 per gallon you’re looking at Just about $140 or so in fuel plus tolls and someone’s time. With gas you’re likely looking at around 8-9 mpg at $3.40? So that would be what, over $250?
When I do transport I charge in the area of $1.25.mi measured one way. So I would normally get around $400-450 for that trip.
NJ is around a 13-14 hour round trip towing. I’ve done it a few times.
Might not be a bad idea to check into shipping.
the guy doesnt want to ship the car. we might have found someone to help us out though
That’s odd. With shipping basically all he has to do is hand over the keys to the transport company. Oh wel. Good luck.
just rent a truck and hook a tow dolly to it thts wht i did when i went to michigan.
Remember, half the fun is the trip to get it
