    I would love to drive your car from MONTREAL to LOS ANGELES/SoCal area in late August. Ideally would want to take 10-14 days to do so, arriving Sep 1 at the latest. As a highly responsible person and professional with stellar references and an excellent driving record, you can count on me. My 22 year-old daughter who just graduated college would be accompanying me. Thanks! Laura

      Hello everyone!

      I am an available, experienced driver located in the Dayton, Ohio area. I am able to drive your vehicle any distance within the country in a timely manner, driving at least 12 hours per day. I request that you cover the expenses of gas, lodging, as well as $12/hour for driving time, $10/day for food. If you need your vehicle driven from outside the greater Dayton, Ohio area, I am able to travel to you and request plane ticket costs (1 seat & 1 carry on) are covered as well.

      If you are interested, please reach out to me through my e-mail

      We are spending August and part of September in Westport CT (06880) and want to get my 2016 Subaru Impreza from Sanibel, FL (33957) to Westport and have it guaranteed to be in CT on August 1st. We have priced out trucking the car, but because diesel is so expensive and difficult in guaranteeing the dates it likely doesn’t make sense.

      Can you do this? We’d want to do the reverse on 9/11/2022 (we can be super flexible on the pickup dates on both sides as we have a 2nd car here in Florida).

        Aloha, my college age son and I will be visiting family near you in Connecticut in early September and would love to drive to Florida (we have more family there in Boca and Sarasota). Could we leave on September 5 or 6 and would you be ok with us taking a few days to stop for a night in DC, Savannah, and St. Augustine, before delivering the car to you on September 11? Let me know.
        Thank you!

    Hi,
    We booked a company to ship our minivan but it looks like they are going to miss the deadline to ship it! I am considering driving from the SF Bay Area to Boston leaving around 6/15. I would love to find someone to split the driving with. This would be a quick trip across rather than a sightseeing trip. I will pay for gas and tolls of course. My wife and three kids are arriving in Boston on the 21st so I have to be there by then. Happy to talk through possibilities with folks.
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    I hired a company to ship our van but it looks like they will miss the deadline we established. The van has to be there when my family of 5 lands so I may have to drive it 🙁

    I may be driving from the SF Bay Area to Boston leaving around June 16th and want someone to split the driving with. This will be a straight shot trip with no sightseeing. I’ll be taking off work so I need to get there as quickly as possible. I will pay for gas and tolls of course. If anyone is interested please let me know and we can work out the details.

    Thanks!

    Hello!

    I am looking to drive a vehicle from the east coast (flexible pickup location) to the Bay Area, CA in July, leaving from the east coast July 7-10 (flexible) and arriving in the Bay Area by July 24th. I would like to bring a few of my belongings with me in the vehicle. I am 40 years old, work as a school therapist, have a clean driving record, and have driven across the country many times. I’m happy to provide references and background information upon request. I would love to find a mutually beneficial situation that saves you money on moving your car while also saving me the expense of renting a vehicle.

      Hi Billie,

      Are you still available for driving to the Bay Area? We are moving from Amherst MA to San Mateo CA. We will drive one of our cars but would love it if it worked out for you to drive the other one. It is a Prius Prime. We will not arrive in the Bay Area until early August, but you could leave the car with our son in Sunnyvale.

      Let me know if you are interested.

    Hello, everyone!

    I am a middle school social studies teacher with a summertime driving side hustle. Although I am generally willing to begin a trip anywhere in the Lower 48, I will be in Las Vegas next week and would be interested in assisting you with a trip out of Las Vegas that starts on June 14 or June 15 (or potentially starting on June 16, depending on the length of the journey).

    I am an experienced long-distance driver with a clean driving record and insurance. If you are interested, I would love to speak with you. If so, please email me at [email protected] with details so that I can provide you with an estimate.

    Thanks!

      UPDATE TO MY RECENT POST SHARING MY AVAILABILITY TO DRIVE OUT OF LAS VEGAS AROUND JUNE 15, 2022:

      I have secured an opportunity that will be taking me out of Las Vegas shortly after I arrive next week. Because of that, the original post is no longer applicable. With that said, if you are interested in considering me as a driver for a trip in the future from anywhere in the Lower 48 to anywhere else in the Lower 48, please contact me at [email protected]. Thanks!

The car is dog friendly, feel free to bring a furry friend. We will be moving from CA to CLT end of July but we are flexible on when you would like to start and end your trip. Text: 703-400-2551

    We are not looking to pay someone, so please do not contact us if you are looking for payment. We would like this to be an equal opportunity for us as well as someone who would like a vehicle to drive across country.

    I am driving from San Jose, CA to Atlanta, GA on June 13th, arriving in Atlanta on June 16th. I am flying from San Diego to San Jose arriving around 10 am. I will be heading out as soon as I pick up the car I will be driving to Atlanta. I am looking for a female passenger that needs to get to Atlanta. I am being paid for doing this trip so we could share a two bed motel room or you can get your own motel room. The only thing you pay for is whatever you buy which includes your meals. About me: male, 75, married, non-smoker and not 420 friendly. You: female, no drugs, if you are a smoker it will only be done at breaks only.
    My cell is 619-993-6577 email [email protected].
    I will have a senior dog riding with me and she does not get along with other dogs or cats so no pets.
    I will be traveling on I-40 so check Google maps to see my route and see if there is an on and off ramp that I could pick you up easily.
    Thank you for reading

          You are sadly mistaken. This is a quote taken directly from your post:

          “I am being paid for doing this trip so we could share a two bed motel room or you can get your own motel room. The only thing you pay for is whatever you buy which includes your meals”

          This is not a dating site. This site is used for people seeking driving help and services. Plenty of other sites for you to try and pick up women.

    Are you planning on moving cross country and you want to see the sights along the way but you don’t want to be the driver, then hire me. As long as everybody has a seat and everybody is buckled in then you can hire me. I charge $10 an hour driving time plus all related trip costs which includes meals, fuel, motels, plane tickets (I am in San Diego, so my starting and ending point is San Diego). The driving cost is based on Google maps going from Point A to Point B to point C and so on. For example San Diego to Portland, OR is 17 hours, so that is Points A and B and for Point C is Denver, CO is another 18 hours and for your final destination Long Island, NY is Point D is 28 hours for a total driving time from Point A to Point D is 63 hours and my driving cost is $630 plus the expenses that I mentioned before.

    This link will take you to a story that was written about me and other drivers like myself:

    My wife and I are looking to drive from CT/MA/NY/NJ to Idaho or surrounding states sometime in May, June, or July. The sooner the better.

    We are both professionals in our 30s with clean driving records and have driven cross-country several times. We would drive ~8-10 hours a day until reaching the final destination without any detours or unplanned stops. We can also drive manual.

    Let us know if this would work well for you!

    Available Starting May 22 – Driver from Richmond/DC Area to ANYWHERE in the Lower 48

    Hey, everyone!

    I am a middle school social studies teacher in the greater Richmond region of Virginia. When my school year ends on May 21, I have the summer available to drive your car ANYWHERE in the continental United States. Ideally, the starting point would be somewhere in the greater Richmond region or the DC area. However, I would be open to considering opportunities beginning in other areas, depending on the circumstance.

    I am an experienced driver with delivery experience and time driving in a variety of locations around the country including NYC, L.A., Atlanta, D.C., and Las Vegas. I love the open road and would be thrilled to assist you in getting your vehicle from Point A to Point B.

    What I will do for you:
    – Safely deliver your vehicle in a timely manner
    – Drive for at least 10 hours a day (unless the trip is shorter than 10 hours)
    – Adhere closely to the path to the final destination
    – Avoid overestimation of expenses by keeping detailed receipts

    What I ask in return (willing to negotiate):
    – $12/driving hour
    – Lodging costs
    – $12/day for food (roughly 1 meal)
    – Return plane ticket (1 seat and 1 checked bag)

    If you are interested or have any questions, please contact me at [email protected]. Thanks!

    Sincerely,

    Zach Green
