If I recall correctly the ship will be there for what, one or two years for a refit?

Makes sense to save money bringing the crews vehicles along in this manner, way to go Navy!

Hell of a drive off ramp even from off the elevators deck. Saves serious dough for sailors or the Navy,true.

Just think what it would cost if Congress made the decision.

My ship, the Saratoga did this when we moved from Mayport FL to Phily back in 1981. I left my rust bucket of a car though back in FL.
