Seems I did not successfully get my point across - or a few here are twisting things around a bit.
I'm not surprised at quotes over $1000 from many companies for normal point-to-point trips. I AM surprised with a price that high when someone claims they have an "empty 15' space" on their truck, they just happen to be in my area, and are heading to Michigan anyway. IF that story was true - adding my Subaru to their load would not result in much of an expense difference. Just about any money paid would be "gravy."

My offer was food and fuel paid for, a place to stay one night, and train and bus tickets back home plus $400. So that amounts to $200 a day in their pocket. One day entails driving and one day requires riding in a train and a bus.

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
