covered transport

Greetings all: I could use some advice on auto transport companies, for covered shipping, California to Jacksonville, FLA. The car will be leaving either from Dinan's shops or from San Diego. I'm fairly certain the extra $$ for covered transport will be worth it. Thanks in advance.

this is a great website i used when i did my research on auto transport companies:
http://www.transportreviews.com/

i forgot which company i called, but a month ago they had a $400 gas card promotion if u go with them (they were also highly rated). i almost went w/them but my car purchase didn't go through. i was quoted about $1100 for covered from montana to CA. i'd estimate that u'd be looking at around $1300-$1500 covered for a REPUTABLE company.

just watch out for companies that give u cheap quotes to earn ur business. trust me, when u want to ship such an expensive vehicle, u want to make sure they're reputable and have the warranties/insurance/coverages in place if anything happens with your transport.

hope this helps! good luck buddy and enjoy ur car

Horseless Carriage is the best in the class, but quite expensive. Friends have used Intercity before and have good experience with them.
