Need to ship a G to TN from CA and need some recommendations and feedback plz.

also is it worth it to pay the extra for an enclosed transport?

Google Auto Transport, you can get an estimate in minutes. I would send it enclosed and insured, no telling what kinda weather they might run into judging from this past week....Gary

List it on 'uShip'. A bunch of transport companies will throw some offers your way, no obligation to make a deal unless you accept a bid from them.

googled around and possibly going with DAS

also made an account with uShip and waiting for a bid..

Take a one way plane ride there and drive it back.

That's what I would do!
DAS is supposed to be good, I sold a car a couple of years ago (on eBay) and the buyer used DAS to ship the car from NY to Alabama. They came to my house to pick up the car, he went and picked it up at one of their locations.

I use these guys all the time. Had no issues. http://www.tpglobalautotransport.com/
