Hi all. I was checking with A-1 transporters, and they said it would take THREE WEEKS (one week 'til the truck is back in town, and two for the travel) for my car to get to VA from WA! Is this the norm?

Shipping cars is not as simple as it seems, from VA to WA the car may well come off the transporter 20 or more times to allow for other cars to be on or off loaded along the way. It's a pain in the butt. Now that I know, it makes my skin crawl to think of a bunch of goof balls trying to shift a 914 and slipping the clutch as they repeatadly load and unload. It's amazing that the transmission works when it arrives. We drive the things every day and still manage to grind a gear on occasion.
Hmmm...... I guess that didn't do much to put you at ease, sorry (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |
