Is it better to move a car across country or sell it and buy a used car there?
I have a '99 Honda Accord and live in California. I go to school in Indiana. For the past year and a half I have been without a means of transportation because I leave my car at my parents house. My biggest concerns with bringing it to college are that the paint is pretty old (original paint for the most part, still very nice coat) and that the battery, tires, etc are not good in snow. It only snows about 5 inches tops the entire winter it seems. The pros are that it is very reliable, up to date with maintenance, and completely paid for.
The other argument is that I sell it to my parents and sibling for his car and buy myself another out there. The drawback is that I'm gambling with reliability, I can only afford up to a $4000 car, and I would likely have to move it back to Cali later in the year and back again in the fall
If you can sell it to a family member and purchase another locally, that may be the best approach.
- Do you have to sell your motorcycle if you plan to move from Colorado to New York? I have a Honda CB500F motorcycle that I love but it is too far to drive. If I decide take it with me, I have to drive twice since I have a car too. If you were me, would you sell the motorcycle before you leave or drive twice?
- Honda Shadow Spirit 750 Across Country, Can it make it? I'm planning on taking my Honda Shadow 750 across the US for about a month, maybe even more. Making stops, camping, all that stuff. I changed my sprocket to a 38t and I just wanted to make sure it can make it that length of time and distance without problems. It has about 18,000 miles on it and I will be getting it detailed before the trip. Any advice would be great.
- Is there anywhere to buy a good used Honda engine that s not a scam? Reviews on the internet show that most of the company's and salvage yards sell junk and won't honor their warranties if they offer one.
- I sell cars for 1800$ or less but the taxes are almost here could I sell this car for 3000$? It's a 2004 Suzuki Verona 159,000 miles Automatic It's in exelent condition no problems But do you think I'll get 3000$ for it? Most people usually want a honda or Toyota
