Oh yes, I'm gonna be up for many, many, many, too many hours.
And thanks!
When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

I'm so glad you are making this trip, Shir. And quite looking forward to hugging you when you make it to SF.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I'm so glad you're going to make it, Shir! Safe travels!
Does anybody have a site they recommend to get a realistic idea of what a used car is worth? I'm finally willing to entertain the idea of selling my old Ranger. I still get random strangers approaching me to ask about it occasionally, so I'm trying to get a realistic picture of its worth. But I've now gotten a range of nearly $2500 (Kelley Blue Book) through $1000 (Carmax) down to $400 (!!!) (Carvana). Anybody know who actually has the skinny?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
How about www.edmunds.com ?
The last time I was playing around there, IIRC it gave me a price for "private sale" and a price for "trade-in."
eta: FWIW, I just tried my car details at edmunds.com and their private sale number was pretty close to the offer they relayed from Carmax.

I am in a bit of denial about the fact that I have a 6am flight to Miami tomorrow morning, and then I'm driving from there to St. Louis by Sunday. I'm happy to do it, and it's the right thing to do for Bill's dog Sunny, but it was not at all what I thought this weekend would look like.
Wish me easy flights on both ends, and a clear highway in between.

Happy travels, Shir!
selling my old Ranger
What year? I’m not in the market or anything. It’s just that I learned to drive stick in my dad’s 1983 Ranger. That thing lasted into the 2000s, and it was still running when Dad sold it for a few hundred bucks to be someone’s farm truck.
