Anybody got any recomendations on auto shipping company's they have used and were happy with? Need to get a car from CA to CO. Just looking for good service, and affordable. Also what whould be the ideal method of chaining the car down for transport, so I can make sure nobody screws up? I was quoted 575, most places, and it seems to be a broker business. Encolsed I think would be too much. TIA

Why not rent a car dolly and go get it yourself? 914's tow rather well and the trip there and back should take at most 3 days. If you go this route, take I70. Less chance on snow/ice going through the mountain passes. Stop in Vegas and win the $31.8 mil slot jackpot (I donated to it 3 weeks ago)
A buddy who trucks told me that 3 weeks ago the fuel surcharge went up to $0.16 per mile. Who knows what it is now.... Your fuel/hotel bill would be a lot less than a trucking companys. You would get the car faster and safer than trusting someone else. $0.02 from someone who has more miles towing 914's than driving them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
