hey gents, quick question, anyone ever had a car trailered to Vegas for SEMA before? I’m actually thinking of sending my own car there to drive around for a week, maybe more, instead of renting something… it’ll cost more but might be worth it. It costs $1,500 cdn each way (by train) in Canada to go from Toronto to Calgary so i thought maybe it would only be $500 - $800 USD each way… am i in the ballpark? - - - Updated - - - yuck… everything is $1k - $1,500 each way… not really worth it just for a week or so. i guess you dont really drive much when you’re there anyways. do they have UBER in Vegas? ---

Uber and Lyft both operate in Vegas. Traffic can be insane and your ride will show up when it shows up. I’d rather just rent my own car for $50/day. ---

$600-700 per car for 6 hours and 120 miles. That is enough to go to the Hoover dam and back and romp on the strip a bit. I done it several times. ---

when you’re taking your wife on vacation - you don’t go to car shows. when you’re in vegas - you don’t bring your wife. this whole thing doesn’t add up for me haha ---
