Need some suggestions.
Ok since it seems like i wont be able to get rid of my car like i would like to...im thinking about having it taken to a mechanic in Ohio that im cool with....but from the current point my car is at...it would have to travel close to 4 hours to get it there...What would be the cheapest yet efficient method on getting it there....I dont have access to a truck so i cant just rent a Uhaul and Haul it over there myself...so if theres any other suggestions that would be great

yea they do charge by the mile.
I rented one of their cargo vans, we only made like 8 trips back and forth from old apt to new apt and it cost us like $80 for 1 day.

try a transport Co they are usually cheap... tell them your not in a hurry and they'll just add it on with the next trip they do at the place. Or go ghetto style and chain it to an other car...

so Timmy's gonna fix it up for you huh Jae?
I remembered that there's other car rental place that let you rent by days, not mile. Btw, have you think about getting an SUV from a cheap car rental and rent a uhaul trailer to tow your car? Should be $100 Max for one day?
