Raptor Run...

Who is shipping their trucks out to CA for the upcoming runs?

I was planning on driving but my wife made it sound alot more fun if we ship it out there and fly in and spend a couple extra days back in LV after finishing the run.

What shippers are you using?

Regal Auto Transport came out to the cheapest on an enclosed trailer for me. They also guaranty delivery at Outlaw Raptor by June 1 with a pickup of May 23rd. Reliable Carriers would not give me guaranty on the arrival date. I usually use Reliable.

if you dont mind me asking...what did they quote you?

I got a quote from a local company that was like $3k I know thats too dang high lol

I had a car shipped from NJ to TX for $800 a couple years ago

2400.00 from Nashville to Outlaw Raptor and then Outlaw Raptor back to my house in Nashville. The enclosed trailer added a few hundred each way onto the bill. No other surprise charges. A lot of the other companies were quoting me 1800.00+ each way. Shit, for 3600.00 + the 3400 for my airfare, I would have driven myself.

I would think part of the fun would be driving there. You could make stops at SDHQ and/or ADD.

No time and I travel enough as it is. I would rather spend an extra few days in Cali than drive the 2000 miles each way solo. I've already driven 30k miles this year. And really, driving I10-I20 through Texas is ******* boring. I already drive it 8 times a year from Nashville. Doing it a third time in July to go down to Terlingua and Big Bend National Park again. Plus the price of fuel has made it so that transporting the truck is cheaper than driving.
