drive it, then let us know how it went.

i'm looking at getting a TT and looking specifically for sellers across the country...

I say ship it.

I shipped mine from Austin texas to georgia for 500$. You could not fly up there and and drive it down for cheaper.

PM for the info if you want it.

Drive it. Check the weather before you leave. If it looks like snow (I'm assuming you have little experience driving in snow), postpone the pickup a day or two. Even a day after a snow, the highways should be clear. Be very careful on side roads that haven't been cleared.

Remember that summer tires are very ineffective in cold weather. So even if there isn't snow on the ground, the tires will be slick; moreso if the roads are wet. Take it easy and drive it. It should be fun.

Definitely wash it thoroughly (top and bottom) to get the salt off. If there is moisture on the roads in OH, you will have salt on your car.

Drive it!!!!
I made the trip from Brenham to Cincinnati and back several times. Cleveland would be a long one straight thru, even when I was young and stupid!
This time of year I would do two days and the extra miles to get south as soon as you can. I-71 to Cincinnati, I-75 to Chattanooga, I-59 to I-12 (Slidell, LA) and then I-10 to Houston, US290 to Austin. Say Hi to my old friend Brenham on your way through! Stop and get some fresh Bluebell, if you want. :dance:

I would ship it. There's unexpected snow on the streets in Lexington, KY this morning (which you might drive right through on your way back). It happens all the time in this part of the country and north of here in the winter. We had a forecasted "light dusting" a few years ago a 15 inches of snow later they closed the interstates. Very unpredictable weather.

If it were summer I would do the drive, right now I would ship it.
