I checked with Intercity and Rich Lacy prior to shipping my Kirkham from UT to CA. The cost estimates were very close. I think Rich was slighter cheaper, and the Kirkhams gave him a big endorsement. While there were delays in the mountains, Doug's truck broke down near Reno, and navigating the streets of San Francisco proved difficult, my Kirkham did finally make it.

Either company will be fine. Unfortunately with gas being so expensive, you really can't compare today's transport costs to costs from a couple years ago.

Chris I'm sorry that I offended you that was not my intent. Whoever transports your car you will love it when your Kirkham arrives.

chris, I have used Rich 3 times ,and he always did a good job. The last time I transported a car I used a local couple that drove to detroit from here and brought it back for slightly less that Rich and they did fine also, Rich was unavailable for my time frame on that occasion. chuck

Chris;

Might want to use InterCity Lines real time quote system to establish a base for cost comparisons

http://www.intercitylines.com/QuoteRequest.cfm

ICL, as does most other professional car transport companies has GPS tracking for the truck. Also, they called me a number of times during their trip to let me know their estimated time of arrival at my driveway.

Not implying that ICL is any better than other companies, just happens to be the only company I had experience with.
