    Default is there any way to move a vehicle...

    From atl to san diego under 700$

    I dont want to drive my car all the way, i would like to tow it...

    the cheapest i found was renting a uhaul+ dolly..which is around 700$... but thats for 8 days? i cant change the amount of days online. so i think it would be cheaper for 3-4 days..

    i thought about renting a suv, and renting a tow dolly but the drop charge for a one way rental is outrageous!!!

    BTW, im movin to San diego in 3 months!!! good bye atl...

    I read on the EF forums a guy shipped an EF from San Fran to GA for $775ish. It was along time ago I read it, but worth looking around. I'll see if I can find the company name.
