My wife was telling me about this thing where people need a ride cross country and drive your car for you and they pay the gas.
I am moving soon and have more cars then I can drive. I would like someone who is going in that direction that does not have a car to drive one of mine.

Anyone ever heard of this? Where can I find more info?

Thanks

You may want to rent the movie "Moving" starring Richard Pryor.

I've done this four times, and I never paid for gas.  In fact, they paid for the gas and my return flight home.  Are you moving anytime near a holiday at a local college?  That might be your best bet to find someone cheap, but I still don't think you're going to find someone to pay the gas.

RipMeyer, unless you have a car unsuitable for it, you might want to just rent one of the U-Haul car carriers.  I think my nephew paid $25 per day for the one we used.  That was a few years ago, but they couldn't be much more expensive now.z

Rent the car carrier. Save yourself some time and worry. How many people do you think are sitting around waiting to go to San Antonio from Las Vegas and are more than willing to meet your schedule.

And if they are so hard up that they are willing to pay for gas, but not buy a greyhound bus ticket, do you want them driving your vehicle?

Good Luck!
