The bulk of my recent move to Maryland is complete, meaning the parts from the garage are in a storage unit down here and the three cars (+1 for the Eurovan) that were ready to leave are safely on the ground. 

This was a big lift and doesn't even get into the usual stresses and hurdles of moving out of state. The S6, E30, and E55 got loaded up on a trailer with a new hauler who was extremely competent and affordable, a rare combination these days. 

I'm always amazed by how you can tell whether you're working with an experienced transporter. The way they latch the cars down, the condition of the truck and trailer, and their general confidence when faced with challenges. We couldn't get all three cars on until we arranged them in the order you see here, to the point that the Audi had to kiss the bumper of the E30 to fit. But the E30 has a thick, rubber insert running the length of the bumper, so you can get away with this in order to get the cars on. Not so with any other combination. 

Overall, it's a relief to have this much done. The 911 will come down in the coming weeks, with the Trooper RS and LX450 unknown in terms of an arrival date. And the Cosworth, of course, is anyone's guess.
