Thanks for all the great tips everyone! Insurance cost is a smart thing to consider Carey, thanks.
My company is allowing $1200 toward vehicle shipment or toward the cost of buying one when we get there. We already have our flights booked from San Diego to Hilo and we live in Denver, Colorado. Our plan is to drive to Arizona for a family reunion, drop my cat off at my parents there (however, a friend here may be able to watch her) and then drive to San Diego to drop off our car at the port and then fly out. So now I sort of feel stuck with shipping a car. If I had it to do all over again we would probably skip the reunion and just fly out from Denver. I make everything so complicated. I guess it will be nice to see a bunch of family before we move though.
I think we'll be able to get by with one car if I live close enough to work. I'm hoping to find a place within walking or biking distance to work. My husband will be able to work from home remotely, so I really think one car will be plenty.
Thanks again everyone!
