Response: Hi Dave. First of all I would like to thank you for your interest in shipping my new vehicle. I'm pretty excited about it! The car is still with the seller at his residence in OH. It is ready to go now but I will need to contact him for further pick up information. It is probably not a good idea to drive it though. The seller has advised me that the transmission is starting to go bad, but he has not had the car professionally diagnosed. This is in his opinion. The vehicle has not been driven since the summer, so the battery is dead right now. But I can call AAA to have them put in a new battery or to jump the current one. I am hoping to have the vehicle delivered to me within the next 2-3 weeks, no rush for delivery yet but the seller may want it gone faster than that. Please let me know what you think. Thanks again for your interest. Hope to hear from you again soon. (12/31/2007)

Response: Sounds pretty good Dave. I think that it could probably make the trip once the battery is jumped. I would really appreciate getting a honest professional opinion. The seller is selling this car for his daughter he is away to college out of the country. He doesn't seem to be a very mechanical savvy guy, so that's why I'm thinking he may be making something seem like something huge! I will get back to you again after the holiday. I need to phone the seller and maybe you wouldn't mind having a chat with him man to man...lol. Thnaks again Dave. I really appreciate the extra effort. Have A Very Happy New Year. (12/31/2007)
