Default Making the move!

Making the big move from arkansas (-____-) to San Jose!
In less than a month.
Just thought I'd post a little something before I go so I can eventually make it to a meet. Haha.
Oh and one question.
Anyone have any experience shipping a car? My dad wants mrme to ship mine up instead of driving it up.

That's a long drive. I would definately ship it. Probably cost less than the gass it would take LOL

I had a car shipped like 10 years ago LOL wow I'm gettin old.... just find a company that has good reviews and you should be set.

I know I won't. Haha.
I was lucky enough to be up there in time for BOS this past summer. But I didn't know anyone so I kinda just creeped around. Ahahha.

Welcome to NorCal! Might take a little getting used to, it's a different type culture out this way. But no worries, you've got your new family right here waiting for you!

I've shipped my Chevelle from Missouri to Cali. Specialty auto sales in Pleasanton CA helped to arrange the truck. It arrived safely. Cost me 1k.
