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.
You'd drive it? Safer to rent a flatbed.
Brave to assume it would make that distance drive, better hope there's no slight incline as that would invalidate the warranty
Not brave at all. I assume I would need to tow it, haha!
The fact that they'd throw a tarp on it implies they are towing it so no need to keep track of functionality.
Exactly the plan!
