Hi guys, I'm looking for a bit of moving advice.

Some background. I'm just graduating university in a few months, and my friend/roommate (who just graduated) is just as sick of this place as I am. The plan is, we're both moving from here (Halifax, Nova Scotia) to Ottawa, Ontario.

So now we're looking at our options for moving cross country. He has a car (which he's unsure of taking up there). The options as we see them:
1. Fly up, have stuff shipped
2. Rent a Uhaul style trailer, bring stuff up
3. Rent a Cube van and bring stuff up
4. Get a trailer hitch installed on his car and rent a trailer
5. Just drive up in his car.

He's got a 1998 Pontiac Grand Am, 120,000 Km (72 000 miles) on it. We both have our liscences, so we can take shifts driving. We're talking 1400 Km (840 miles) by mapquest.

So, anybody have any advice? Good stories? Horror stories?
