The sale didn't happen but now the shipping companies won't leave me alone. The door to door price varied from $1200 to $1700 on an open transporter. i must have 30 texts voice mails and calls since 8 last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck that even if the tenants have messed it up unless it's completely trashed i'll boot the tenants, spruce it and sell it after buying the brother out.

old indy Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Let it go? how can people even think this way. unfortunate no one has been appointed already. as long as its not a total shithole community and the units not trashed badly it should be worth the effort. finding good help down there,,, wellllll,, thats another story.

Angry ginger Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share Posted May 15, 2019 Chris how bad is that drive. I am thinking of having her leave it at DFW Sunday when she comes home, fly down Thursday afternoon to DFW and meet her in Nashville Sat morning for the weekend put her on a plane home Monday am then drive it back the rest of the way from there. if i bang it out Monday great if not until Tuesday no big deal. With the weekend in Nashville it works out to the same money as shipping and i've always wanted to go there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old indy Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Its not tooo bad. its 27 hrs from Dallas to my place in MA.- Hopkinton for a reference point. knoxville is about the halfway point. 13-15 hrs from there. 81 can sssssuck being two lanes but its a better route than 95 imo. my pick up took 6 tanks of gas so a little car wont cost jack to drive up.

The truck driving ASSHOLES can make 81 a real pia blocking traffic for miles and miles. I know the feeling, going thru NYC years ago the traffic was all screwed up and i ended up getting funneled onto the Holland tunnel!!?? after going in circles a while i finally spotted a couple of beat cops walking along and asked them " how to get back to 95......... neather one could tell me!?? they apparently had never left queens before. lol 14 minutes ago, Angry ginger said: turns out it's a sportage not a sorento so should be close to 30 mpg. things a 2014 with 29k on it so i'll take it over selling it to carmax and having them make a few grand on the deal. should be a decent car for him. if the wife can't go to nashville i might have him come and do the drive with me. Even with gas prices on the rise that wount be bad at all. i got 16-17 mpg and with a co pilot its not a bad run at all. ive done it solo so many times now ive got the route down pat,, stops, where not to stay ect..

Angry ginger Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share Posted May 15, 2019 and no doubt i would go 81, looks like 40 right into 81 is the best route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to fly the 26th with the boy into DFW in the afternoon prob drive till midnight then get up Monday morning and see how far we an make it. wifes being a PIA about driving it and leaving it at DFW in the long term lot, smh as dallas is not a confusing or hard city to drive in the highway takes you right around the city and it would be sunday afternoon. she doesn't understand what a PIA it is to have to go to longview first. rent a car and drop it at shreveport is the easiest and that 2 hundy and a couple extra hours for 15 minutes of her time this weekend. but given her mom died i can't rally push it.

old indy Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Oh I hear you, but I gotta admit Drivers around there do so so much stupid shit you really got to be on your toes. At least The major portion of construction is done up on 183 and 635. That’s been a mess for quite a few years now I rented a car at DFW this last trip to save anybody else running around to pick me up and when I dropped it off at an off airport site the piece of shit tried to hit me with hail damage on the car. Sept it didn’t even rain never mind hail!? I’ve had issues renting cars at DFW in the past so make sure you do a good walk around and photos of the vehicle you rent . As if you didn’t know this,,, Alamo tried to get me once before and this time it was enterprise The only two times I’ve ever had issues renting a car both from the same facility. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could prob save some money taking the car to dallas where theres more movement as well and thats only 2 hours away if the family left down there will cooperate. end of day if my kid gets a new car for a grand it is worth it, selling it there and rebuying up here would cost me more than that. fuck make the kid drive it home .
