Bottom line is, if you wanna do it chep and need it quick, drive it and stop whining.


lol i know the one on the far left.


anyway, getting to my post. I was seeing about getting my car moved a couple months ago from here to Louisiana. FedEx and UPS are the most expensive, of course, so dont waste you time chking with them..they were the first thing i tried when i started looking. I found it would be the cheapest to do what some of the other guys are saying and just do the U Haul trailer gimmick esp. if you dont wanna drive the car the whole way for a miles issue or something.

i know maybe this is a stupid statement but why build something you dont want to drive i know how shitty the suspension can feel on long trips but just something that comes along with a performance car.
