Relocation west? Need help with your move?
 
Fellow airline guy here who has had to move for work a few times and figure out the logistics. If you got a new gig out west and you're currently anywhere southeast USA or vicinity? If you need help moving a vehicle I can help. I need to move my new EV out to SLC and I want to trailer it. I'll drive your truck, SUV, RV or moving truck full of all your stuff. I'll do it no charge and pay half the gas (you pay for gas if its a moving truck filled with stuff). I just need the vehicle to have a tow hitch and be able to tow 5000lbs. I can come get it almost anywhere in GA,FL,AL,NC,SC,TN,LA,MS and maybe a couple more. I can drive it to UT,CO,AZ,NM,NV,ID,MT,WY and maybe west coast. Maybe we can help each other out? PM me

Full references and insurance and we can work out the other details

Just rent a truck and car trailer from uhaul. Why not just drive the car if you’re willing to spend the time towing it?

Or ship it.

This post is very confusing

Does the EV have no battery or motor???

If it's a Tesla road trips are a breeze. Why not just drive it?

You can ship a vehicle for less than the cost of a uhaul. I shipped one across the country for $600.

Before renting a uhual truck for a long-range tow make sure it has a seat that reclines and cruise control. Ask me how I know. No, this was not in 1985 it was 2021.

That seems low with gas(diesel) prices today and inflation. Cost me $800 to ship a motorcycle in 2014.

Vehicle shipping quotes are very specific for the route driven. I shipped an F150 to Arizona from GA some years ago, cost me $500, it was an empty spot on a multi vehicle trailer that was going that direction anyway. Shipping it back would've been $2500.

This seems a lot more accurate
