much, much, much, MUCH BETTER than spending $800 on snow tires and trying to drive cross country....

 

Hey Erock,

DAS is who I use for my car dealership when a customer wants to ship his car. Unfortunately they don't offer dealer discounts. They have a great tracking service but add at least a week to the estimated time of arrival that they give you. I can get discounts on local shipping (west coast).

 

thanks Kiet...

Just talked w/ my insurance company and I'm covered so no need to purchase insurace thru DAS....

$499

 

It sounds like you got a terminal to terminal deal. The San Diego terminal I use is Fletcher Towing in El Cajon near Parkway Plaza. You may want to consider paying an addtl $100 for a top load. If you car is on the bottom and you have a leaker above you...the oils and fluids could screw up your paint and your car may be on the trailer for 2 weeks. Good luck to you.

 

and this is why I went the enclosed trailer route ...


but dayum ... $500 is crazy cheap to get to NJ .... good luck with it.

How soon until you leave?

Going away party/run down Telegraph anyone?

 

Telegraph Cyn sounds great. I live a block off of it. There's a great route off of Honey Springs road towards the end of Telegraph. I've taken it with bike riders a couple of times. A bunch of new restaurants just opened up in the area as well.

 

Kiet - thanks for the advice, Toploading sounds like the way to go...

Jim - Well, when I thought I was driving I was going to try to leave this weekend or the latest Tuesday. Now, I just need to get a plane ticket, so I'll probably leave on the 19th....

 

Do you guys think I should just keep the wheels on or put the Stockers back on? When I get over there, I'm going to have the Volks on anyway, so I don't know If I want the extra hassle of taking them off then putting them back on...

 

I'm down for a lil run fun AS LONG AS it's been dried out... Right now, I bet the roads are saturated, prolly take a few days of clear skies to dry it out.

 

I would prolly just leave em on and take tons of pictures before the shipment, so if they get messed up you can prove it ...

Otherwise, it will cost a $$$ to ship them out there, no?

 

yea, i'll probably do that...

wouldn't cost me anything to ship'em (I'd just put them in w/ everything else the navy is shipping for me), I just don't want to got thru the hassle of mounting and un-mounting.....

 

Rob, are you bringing the truck tonight....I just purchased a set of SF Challenges in gold and need to pick them up (La Jolla)....and take to my apt (college area SDSU). My roommate has not been around for me to ask...btw I paid $2500 with Goodyear eagle F1 run flats with less than 1k miles....do you think I got a good deal???

 

I'm bringing my truck. But if you want me to go way the hell down there you're picking up gas.

 

Unless we are going to Dave and Busters tonight and no one told me... hint, hint,

 

Of course that and dinner!!! I will let you know...I have errands to run after work....what time are you getting down here today....also could you pm your number....thanks

 

Well in that case then the first round is on me....wings included

 

I'm like to go tonight but I'd like to see the USC - Ok game. Is there anywere we can go with a TV? hint hint - D & B?

 

Oh wait you said D&B's....I was thinking Hooters for some reason.....

 

Well erock has my dinner tonight but you guys can fight to the death for it...j/k.. I'll be at the mart at around 6:30 PM. I figure we can kick it at Fusion till like 9:00 then go get your stuff and take it down. Would that be cool?
