I wouldn’t take one even if if was free
I would, you get $1.25per kilo of stainless steel and $3.15 for aluminium at the local scrap metal merchant
Take the battery out and use it for home storage.
Sure. Same. I could just throw a tarp over it on my way to the scrap yard, to protect my reputation.
Brave to assume it would make that distance drive, better hope there's no slight incline as that would invalidate the warranty
The fact that they'd throw a tarp on it implies they are towing it so no need to keep track of functionality.
You'd drive it? Safer to rent a flatbed.
