My last payment goes through tomorrow, and then my car will be paid off! It took me 16 months.

A 6 month drought doesn't count as regularly.

I was going to say I'd rather be debt free than getting laid but then I actually thought about it and decided it wasn't true. The good news is I'm both. (well... except my mortgage) My internet johnson is of immense proportions!

I'm okay with maintaining debt, as long as it's manageable. I built a credit score of ~745 in just two years with the number of car loans (and one credit card I always paid off) I had ha ha. There definitely comes a time when debt free is a good thing though, especially when you're looking to take on a mortgage. One of the biggest reasons why my STi will be gone in a couple of months =)

Oh, not yet. I was talking about my MM title.

I'm about 99% sure Travis (KPWSerpiente) is going to buy it from me in June though 8) He came out from California last Friday and test drove it.

Well it isn't a secret that I'm trying to buy the car. I've done all the groundwork including contacting a dozen auto-shipping companies to see what it is going to run for a coast to coast delivery and the only thing I'm waiting on is for a certain CD to mature so that I don't have to borrow all the money which is why we're talking about June.

I have just been doing some checking lately - auto shipping isnt too bad. I just got a quote for 900 miles that was 450$ on an open truck. If you need enclosed, which i dont know why you would for that car - add 100$

I guess you're about 3 times that distance, but 1300$ should just about cover it i'd guess.

You're kidding, right? On BOTH counts. Enclosed trailers are more expensive to buy, and more expensive to operate (more weight, less mpg, more wear/tear). I wouldnt want to ship a fairly new car, especially one as flashy as Lee's out in the open - both due to wear/tear on the paint and theft risk.

My car was shipped on an open trailer to SoCal for ~$950, those guys did a great job. If you want enclosed, its going to be $1500 and up depending on the shipper.

You've seen Lee's car, right? I don't know why you wouldn't want to ship that enclosed.
When it comes to Ryan Jenkins, the story ends with me putting him in the wall.

I think Lee's car would probably be fine, its not a Honda. What the hell is someone going to steal off of it while its on a trailer? A shift knob? The wing? If RJ could ship a stickered up Honda racecar cross-country and it didn't show up with missing parts I think a STi would be fine.

It's got the proximity alarm on the security system too, so if you stopped for a bite to eat or sleep it would let you know if anyone was close =)

You never know... I pushed to get the buyer of my car to ship enclosed but I think he was too cheap for that, I didnt pay for it and I didnt make the arrangements. The front end of the car was already torn up from rock chips and spec miatas, so the damage part was a non-issue.
