ImUrOBGYN Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 I've been speaking to ForceFed to tow the Supra and Vibe to Texas but haven't heard from him in a few days and have been unable to get final quotes, etc. and move day is coming quick. So, in case I'm unable to get a hold of him or do not hear from him, is anyone else familiar with some trustworthy auto transports? The Supra is not currently running but the Vibe is. I know some places take issue with non-running autos. Thanks all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robochan Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 The Supra is not currently running You didn't have to state the obvious. I don't think any supra runs... But seriously find a company that has their own trucks. Not one that finds them for you. Wasn't super happy with the people that towed my vette here from texas.

Yes, not thrilled about companies that do that and one reason why I didn't go with our moving company for the car transport. Good tip.

Robochan Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 I believe http://www.dasautoshippers.com/ was the most reasonable to deal with and price wise for enclosed when i was getting quotes. I think they own all their enclosed trucks but i called a million companies that had very similar names. Good luck. Car transports suck.

POS VETT Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 I have used only Pilot Transport to move my '8 Z06 from NH to OH. At that time, Pilot was the auto transport company which is used by Honda to move prototypes and production vehicles alike; unsure if it's still true now. The fact that the company was used to move prototypes made me trust the company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didon't seem like a single car was remotely a priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a heads up, but DAS does not own all of their own trucks (I'm not sure if that's different with enclosed ones, but I know this is true at least for open trailers). They sub quite a bit of their work out to smaller carriers. I've worked on a lot of cargo claims where they brokered loads to companies that are insured by the company I work for. Not saying they are a bad company, but as far as transport brokers go their business model is just the same as the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franchi Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Just bumping this to see if anybody else had any suggestions on a good transport company for a car, looking at buying a car in FL next week and starting to get quotes to get it shipped up here and this thread popped up when I searched on CR. Did shoot Forcefed a PM for his info as well but wanted to get a variety of options to choose from. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Hey, Brian... Used these guys to move the CTS-V from CA to OH. One trailer, no shuffling. Great service. Check out their website at the bottom for an online quote generating tool that was very handy. They're a broker, so they'll ask what level of shipment you'd like (covered, open, quick, etc...) and they did a great job.
