Probably from NJ, which is OP's location.
Nu, put up a sign in BMG.

There are very expensive services that do this.
What about rent a wreck?
Bein hazmanim is in a week so try to find RESPONSIBLE guys that wanna go to Miami and maybe offer to pay some of the gas?
What kind of car?
And does NJ mean 08701?

i know people that just had very bad experience with bochurim. they had an accident, no police report and this person took the whole loss plus paid for the other car that they damaged. be careful

Send out a request on Facebook or so something and find someone who you trust to drive it, and pay for their flight back. My grandfather drives to florida for people he knows...

My daughter's new for her (ie. used) car was shipped down for several hundred dollars. The dealer handled it.

I know someone that had a very good experience with a Bochur driving his car

Full police report was filed and insurance covered everything, he and his parents took care of all the paperwork, it was like nothing ever happened

I know plenty of people that had horrible experiences dealing with middle aged adults

Be careful

Sorry. My father drove well for 50+ years, but if you gave my father your car to drive down to Florida, I'd have you committed.

And you can forget about having your car in Florida.
