Keep your current Ranger, ship the Cobra, and have $8300 in your pocket still. Buy a different truck when you get out there, they will be way cheaper...and look for a FULL size! [/qb][/QUOTE]+1 :patriot: [/qb][/QUOTE] :patriot: :patriot: thats what i would do. [/qb][/QUOTE]The ranger forums guys seem to say otherwise on a 4.0 auto ranger??? From the Ford documentation, it can haul about 6000lbs, which would be fine.. I was more looking at F-150s any how.. I just tossed that ranger out there, as it was the 1st link I saw open in my browser pane.

[/qb][/QUOTE]:RaisesHand: [/qb][/QUOTE]a BIG +1!!!!! [QUOTE]Originally posted by yipnip5.0: [qb] hey einstein, you'd still have to pay for gas for towing the Cobra, and you can bet gas for the 4x4 pulling a flat bed over the Rockies will cost a SHIT LOAD more than if you drive the Cobra itself. Also, who the hell considers "depreciation" on a Mustang? No one thats who. If you are worried about the extra 800 miles you'll put on the car the week you drive it, cut back a little in the months to come. As for your d*ick sucking problem, don't ask don't tell. :p [/qb][/QUOTE]You, einstein, apparently cannot read... a 500+rwhp cobra does not get great gas mileage. I should know, I own one. 2300+ miles paying for premuim all the way? ouch. And, just doing a guess here... 2 cars getting about the same gas mileage would add to more total gas used vs 1 truck towing a car.. And from here to Ohio is a few more miles than 800... it's about 800 from here to where I grew up in Washington... Ohio is about 2300 miles from here! I don't know where you got that number from anyhow. Anybody that owns a nice mustang, be it older or new, considers depreciation... that's a given, if you give a crap about your mustang. And the "d*ck sucking problem" that you apparently -dont- understand was aimed toward a specific member on here that likes to give financial advice that only rich people can follow. So, in the future... if you are going to offer advice, please read the persons' post first then give helpful comments! :p [QUOTE]Originally posted by i work with a wild hog: [qb] BUT YOU CAN'T MOVE TILL YOU SELL ME THAT SHIFT BOOT :p [/qb][/QUOTE]Answer my last PM then!!! [QUOTE]Originally posted by season'd 88: [qb] You have an 03' cobra vert, its june, and car needs to be in ohio. Is the car not road worthy? Is it in some tempermental state of tune? If not id drive that bad boy out there top down cruising in the summer breeze. Take some pics and enjoy the drive. The drive will prob provide you a great memory later in life. [/qb][/QUOTE]It's 100% driveable, the thing about it is that if I drive it out there... I need some way to get my crap out there... In my truck. Well, in order to do that... I have to have my bro drive it, so add the cost of flying him from WA to sac, then gas for the truck, meals for him and a ticket back. It's all just adding up! THis is why I asked for advice, lol. Fwiw, it's $1700 to ship the Cobra. I'm doung rough math here... so please bear with me! Fly bro down 150.00 and 500 back to WA from OH and I'm guessing 600 for gas for the cobra... plus food and what not for a 2nd person. You can see why I'm stressed! [QUOTE]Originally posted by 03SVTPower: [qb] How bout, JUST dont move! OR, Ill give you 2800 bucks for you to keep the cobra here, in my name! :patriot: [/qb][/QUOTE]Kinda obligated to now... I'll leave it here in your name bro! (I'll just sign the bank note over to you too!) [/QB][/QUOTE]
