Please be more specific about the REAL locations and you might get a better response - EG; Liverpool NSW to Brighton QLD!

I find it hard to believe the car is in the City (Syd) going to the City (Bris). And it's not as if we all live at the Airport!

is it driveable?

you might find someone who is keen for a ride to brissy - if you trust them to drive it as well.

try a few backloader web sites as they often offer cheap shipping, especially if the vehicle can be taken to the depo. other wise you pay for a truck to pick it up and take it to the depo as well.

how much have you been quoted so far...

I have a truck (curtain sider)12t gross (7mt tray)but guessing it would be expensive for me to run that distance..I would consider it if i know im not going to lose money on it. (only do local here in sydney)

only good thing for me is i dont have to carry a log book

it was a good drive..not too hard but very tired when i got home

it costs a lot.

i think i was driving a bit too hard in parts.110-115km
as i used just over 29lt per hundred kays.

i thought it might flood just past taree.with water coming up to the road both side and all farm houses with water around them

i dont think people understand how much fuel a truck uses, hope someone else footed your fuel costs :)
