Finally La Mierda del Monte decided to do their fucking job and give us our precious car today, so we wasted no time and split the fuck out of Orlando as if we had a firecracker lit in our asses. Yeah, the city is great, but goddamn, there’s only so much cramped motel rooms and fast food we can take.
What the fuck am I even talking about. I am writing this from yet another Motel 6 so we’re still playing dirty motel whores. Unfortunately not only is this one smaller but also dirtier, I saw one of those little tiny cockroaches and DS squashed the shit out of it and now I’m freaked out because I don’t want those little bastard fuckers crawling all over me while I sleep.
Fuck. I hope our new apartments are properly fumigated. Goddamned vermin now I can’t sleep. I’ll even call up my dad, have him send me some of that Malathion. That stuff kills bugs and small mammals.
Oh and I forgot to mention that we’re in Louisiana. The land that saw Britney lip-synch her way out of her mother’s vagina. Oh and there’s also Mardi Gras.
I am so, SO sick of seeing fucking trees. Rows upon rows of trees one after the other in an endless parade of greenery. We only saw like, a small chunk of Alabama for about fifteen minutes, among hours upon hours of green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green green motherfucking green… Deforestation my ass.
You’d think by all those movies about road trips we’d be having their time of our lives, getting involved in crazy hijinks and zany adventures. Fuck no. I was so bored I wanted to tie my cock into a knot. But I much rather have a plain, uneventful journey than have something fucked up happen to us. Hell, we even check if funnels form whenever we see a black cloud. We now have a new foe. And his name is tornado.
I’m gonna go. We gotta wake up extra early tomorrow for the remaining 10 hours of our journey. And I wanna get out of this buggy shithole ASAP.
Ugh. Now I feel creepy crawlies everywhere under this blanket.
See ya’all in Texas.
Felicitaciones por su llegada rapida y segura a Texas. Espero que todo les salga bien y que no esten pasando mucho calor.

by Xtian June 16th, 2008 at 10:54 amOh IT IS! I’ll make a post as soon as we get internet (i’m on a “borrowed” connection right now).
by Kaiser Dämmerung June 16th, 2008 at 11:54 amHey man, I got a question… how much did mierda del monte charged you for shipping your car?
by SrBaluarte June 27th, 2008 at 7:19 amAbout $1300 to Orlando. Directly to Texas was over $2K. Act now and get 2 FREE WEEKS OF DELAY!
by Kaiser June 28th, 2008 at 5:20 pmWow… do you think the car’s weight has an important role on the price?
I need to move my car (Ford Explorer 1999) to Orlando by the end of July.
Been thinking about my options, if it might be better to just sell the car and buy another one or move it?
Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it!
by SrBaluarte June 29th, 2008 at 2:00 pmI don’t know if weight is an issue, I think it’s a fixed rate as far as I know, what makes it more expensive is the amount of insurance you put on your car. We quoted our car for about $15K and the insurance was about $300 or so.
If you can afford under $2K and are able to wait a month before it arrives to Orlando, I’d say keep the SUV and ship it.
However, if your car is showing it’s age or has too many problems, get rid of it and use the sale money to buy a used car there, which could last you longer. I had to sell my 1995 Explorer and it was in pretty good condition to drive in the city, but not enough to warrant a cross-state drive or be subjected to 3-5 hour drives every day. You have to factor in the distance, since compared to PR, EVERYTHING here is far as hell and your car will get a tough workout every day.
Also, old SUV = GAS RAPE.If you can afford it, I highly suggest you invest in a car with decent miles per gallon.
That’s about it, if you need to know anything else, don’t hesitate to ask.
by Kaiser Dämmerung June 29th, 2008 at 2:58 pmHey man, it’s me again. sorry to bother you with the same shit over and over. here’s a very important question:
You think US Customs will rape my pocket for shipping my car?
See I have a 2005 Matrix which I had to left behind in PR to my mom because I thought I couldn’t bring it here. Now it seems I can, because the bank gave me permission to ship it overseas.
But, I have a friend who told me that US Customs might charge me a great deal of money for it, which sucks donkey balls.
any insights?
by SrBaluarte August 26th, 2008 at 9:06 pmDepends on who you choose to ship your car. Those are the ones who deal with customs when they carry your stuff. There are several shipping companies, starting with the bastards from La Rosa del Monte, Crowley, Navieras, or check any transporting dock and there’s a chance you’ll find a company that hauls stuff to the US. Don’t go with the first one, the prices and the dates of arrival vary greatly. But one thing is for sure, they ALL will rape your pocket. Carrying a car overseas is always a $1K+ investment.
by Kaiser August 26th, 2008 at 10:59 pmJust don’t go with the first one you find. Call several shipping companies before you take a decision and not only check their price, but also their reliability, you don’t want your car lost in the middle of the Atlantic.
Anyway hope this helps.
