| I've been looking around online for an auto hauler to get the truck from california to vermont, as a backup plan. my main goal is to get it myself, but want to have things setup either way. i requested 1 quote online, and I've gotten at least 30 responses from various companies. I was wondering if anyone has used a company to get a bagged truck shipped. I'm still going to do research, but would like to hear any good or bad experiences (if any) so I can go in the right direction. Any info would be great. If anything happened to the truck on the journey out here I would feel horrible on so many levels. | |

| I've done it twice. One time was great, the next time was almost a gun fight. I'm probably wr ong but I think these companies contract it out. They take your info then put it out to all the drivers they use. Then they pick one. It ran me about 650 from texas to south Carolina. He picked it up, and it stayed on the trailer til he dropped it off. The second one didn't go so well and I ended up driving the truck all the way back | |

| The second one I don't have a clue what thier name was. Short version of the story is, I told him I didn't want the truck unloaded til it was at my house. I put it on the trailer for him, left it aired up. He called me like 3 days later asking me how to get it off the ground. He took it back to his lot, unloaded it and laid it out. Then he told me I needed to find away to come get it because he wasn't going to transport it because there must be something wrong with it lol

| I am geetting Dooders truck shipped from Cali to Rhode Island and we went with corporate auto transport, Dooder had used them before to ship his sons car from cali to virginia and the only issues he said he had was it was late. So I went for the same company. They have been in touch right along and said they would have it by by Friday. I will let you know how we make out. The phone # for them is 1-503-995-5267 | |

| I can tell you that corporate auto transport did a hell of a job moving the truck and it came in with no damage, but be warned the cops eyed the truck during transport thinking we were smuggling drugs. That is why the truck showed up late, but no damage. Overall happy with that transport company. | |
