When I was looking at buying an S4 from washington the shipping costs were between 1200-1400. That was with campbell trucking and wrightway auto carriers. Seems alot of places have a location in Kent, WA they ship out of.
If I didnt get the good deal I did on my rex I woulda shipped an S4 up here.

Chano.
From Washington to Anchorage how long did it take in drive time? Did you just sleep in the car or are there a few places you recommend to stop at? |

This x100000
When I left Tyndall they told me i didn't need a passport "Military ID and orders are fine". Canada was less than pleased with that situation and I almost didn't get in the country. If you don't already have a passport it takes 4 weeks or you can have it rushed in 2 weeks . I got mine done at the post office on 3rd across from the Saturday market. |

It was years ago, during the 'beanie baby' craze. They made a limited edition Canadian flag one, and the Mountie's at the border crossings were actually searching vehicles for just thoise, as they weren't supposed to leave the country. It was like 12-15 years ago. Sad that I remember that...

I left Anchorage straight from work at 3PM on Friday, May 3rd. I fell asleep at Haines Junction around 1AM. That's 600 miles in 10 hours. My goal was to make it to Whitehorse, but I was really sick and my day at work was busy as heck so I was drained. I drove 20 hours on Saturday, May 4th. Wound up in Prince George area. That's 1100 miles. Lastly I drove 550 miles or so to Seattle on Sunday, May 5th. On the way back, since I stayed in Edmonton, Alberta, for one night, I only needed to sleep in my car once. I left Edmonton around noon on Sunday, May 19th. I slept in some rest stop area around midnight, so basically 12 hours of driving. That would land me somewhere around Kinaskan Lake off Hwy 37, plus or minus 30 minutes of driving 75mph. From there I drove 850 miles to Tok. I posted to my friends and family that I had made it there around 6:45PM or so. I made it back to Anchorage around 11:20PM. The sky near Palmer was weird that evening on my way home. On my southbound trip through Canada I drove around 68mph to 73mph almost the whole time. Northbound was about 75mph the whole time. I only stopped to get gas and pee. I mostly drank water since I didn't have much of an appetite. I only slept about 4-5 hours in my car each time, usually closer to 4. The trip would've taken much longer with a female, but it would've been more enjoyable since I could've taken nicer pictures and rested up better. |

That's actually hauling pretty well through those areas SLDWYS. Road conditions are not great and usually have lots of gravel & frost heave stretches. That's about the same time we do on the bikes but we stop more often due to fuel range limits. AMATEUR! |

I remember when Conti offered me $21.5k as a trade-in for my 2011 WRX Limited last year and kids were low-balling me all summer with $18k-$20k. Even at $25k I thought it was still a good deal. $21k for a 2008? This world is effed.

Well, I did make it down to Haines, AK in time for a ferry in sub 10 hours. Yes, I know, "dangerous! too fast! blarghblarghblarghcopsblarghdirtblarghheaves". But the heaves were freshly paved over, cops were non existent, and the highway was open.

No matter what kind of good deal you list it as people are going to offer you less. So you set the price high to allow room to negotiate. Though sometimes people don't realize how upside down they are on their loan so they post ridiculous prices as well. |
