Two years ago, the cost of shipping my sedan inside the moving van from Pittsburgh to TV was an additional $1200. We drove the two cars down. I'm not sure we saved any $, but it was a lot of fun and we were able to bring some fragile stuff down safely.

I just got a quote from an auto transporter recommended here last week (dba New World Auto Transport) of $1895 to transport a car (totally enclosed) from Grand Rapids, MI, to a Long Beach, CA, port. That's roughly 2200 miles.
