Bought a truck when I moved to Texas. I managed to furnish my home there off Craigslist by picking up stuff way cheaper than by buying new stuff. Completely infeasible to buy some of these things even with the Subaru Forester I used to have.

It sounds like you've minimized one-time furniture costs by increasing your recurring fuel costs.

I misspoke. I let the Forester. I just don’t use it for this anymore.

Couldn't have rented a van/UHaul for a day or weekend?

Not really. In my experience, quality vs list time is a concave up decreasing function. If your close duration is high, you will get substantially worse execution.

If you’ve been able to beat that, then you are better at this than I am.
