Default Inter-State Covered Transport

I know Intercity Lines comes highly recommended by many RLers but for those of you who have had your GT3s shipped to you from a non-local dealership, I'd be curious as to what other transport companies you have used and would recommend. Thank you.

I have used Reliable (reliablecarriers.com) about 30 times before and they have been spot on every time. Great drivers that care about the cargo and I have always gotten A+ communication from them.

I had an awful experience with reliable! They actually lied about damaging my car! They are part of FedEx

I have had repeated good results with Intercity, Reliable, a Horseless Carriage.

Passport (now owned by Fedex I think, Bob Pass sold out) dropped my car while on the lift gate from the upper level. Fortunately it caught 1/2 way off and hung-up in the middle. Damage required 8 months to fix. Although my ins company handled it all for me in dealing with Passport, still a hassle and NOT something I want to happen ever again!

I used intercity on my TTS in May. Worked great and super easy to deal with.

That sucks sorry to hear about the bad experience. I didn't know they were bought out by fedex...I thought fedex bought one of the others, but none the less I wouldn't use anyone else unless because of time crunch they weren't available. All of these companies occasionally have a accident or problem but they have been aces for me and all the drivers were extremely careful.
