Getting a car ferried

posted in travel |

Do the math. If you double the number of automobiles under your care, you double the number of snow tires that have to be installed before the beginning of winter. We’re still in double-digit temperatures, so the local garages aren’t under siege; you call and you come over. Easy. In fact, one of the cars, here, is so new that the tires and wheels came directly from the dealer. It’s still a dance, though.

To start, the new car was dropped off at the local garage, while the driver walked home to get the second car. I could have jumped in to the game, but some people like to play solo. Toward the end of the afternoon, I loaded a complete set of wheels from our garage, to go to the real garage. Meanwhile, the garage owner transported the wheels from the first car back here in his truck (because carbon…) Still with me? Good. The second car will get its snow shoes tomorrow.

That wasn’t the most important detail from today. We had negotiated with someone to drive the Rogue from here to its new home. Someone coming off the ferry who would do the ferry job. I get lost in the details. Anyhow, that fell through, so today calls were placed to two different car dealerships and a company that has one of those fantastic trucks that ferry cars. The truck won’t come to your house; dealerships only. Hence, the need to involve people who sell cars, in order to have someone transport a car. I’m now waiting for the when and where for the actual pickup.
