They charge a fee, usually in the $300-$400 range.

OH - that's how that works... I don't know - while I'm seriously considering this route when it's my time, I think I might drive out there and trailer mine back. That will obviously be more money, but I can't say that I have confidence in the receiving dealer doing a good job for me. Also, if I found out my car was with Beckie, I'm impatient enough to not want to wait a few to several more days for it to arrive 2000 miles later. That would be a kick-@$$ road trip!

I certainly don't want to put any excess miles on my ZL1 if I don't have to do so, but my ZL1 is going to be a weekend, good weather only car that won't see a lot of miles.

This.

I'm sorry 'Jedi for going off-topic there

If your vehicle were at Becky's dealership, it means that you wouldn't have arranged for a courtesy delivery in the first place, because with a courtesy delivery the vehicle is not shipped to the selling dealer. The vehicle is shipped directly from the assembly plant to the dealership performing the courtesy delivery, so it never ends up being at the selling dealership.
