If you're up for a road trip....Fly down to Florida on Southwest from TF Green (about $140), rent a Uhaul (about $400), and tow the sucker home. I've done this twice (once from Texas and once from Florida) and it was a blast. One thing sucks....those Uhauls get terrible gas mileage but it sure beats putting the wear & tear on your own vehicle. Be sure to check the tires (blow outs at 65mph on I-95 aren't fun...believe me) and replace bearings & seals before you leave.

In all honesty, if you can get someone to haul it up here for about $800-1000, when all was said & done it probably cost me that much in gas, hotel rooms and blown tires.
