guppie01 0 #27 December 5, 2008 Ya know, I can't say enough about Toyota quality. I have a 2001 Toyota Rav4 with 189k miles, same clutch, no major mechanical issues (except the make believe ones that the dealer tries to scam me on), brakes have only needed to be replaced once. It's a fucking MACHINE man!!! Can you say that about a Chevy???? g "Let's do something romantic this Saturday... how bout we bust out the restraints?"

gonzalesna 0 #34 December 6, 2008 Quote Quote It might be cheaper to have the thing put on a truck and hauled. Or did you look into that already? There are companies that do that specifically. (course you might know that already) LOL Yeah, I actually work in the industry and if I want the car trucked within a week it will cost me 2500. The problem is most truck carriers do not specifically hual cargo from 1 side of the country to the other, and when they get to that destination it's difficult for them to find cargo to hual back to get them home. Although rail may be an option for me. Looking at all my options right now, and compiling the cost's. g Tell ya what i'll do... you pay for my flight to the states, over to MD and the gas, I'll drive 'er back to Cali. I'll cover my own food and my return flight. I don't use hotels... just rest stops. This is all provided there's a case of Jack Daniel's waiting at the door when I show up.I drove from Eglin AFB in the panhandle of FL to Eloy AZ in 30 hours. Left on a Tuesday, got there on a Wednesday. That even included an hour stop to visit with BoosterMPS in Houston. Get me there on the 23rd and I'll have your car there by Christmas.Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
