Sounds like you used a broker to ship your car. It's definitely you get what you paid for business. Deal with a transport company like Plycar directly and you get a better experience that costs a little more money. Contact a transport company through google and it goes out to the lowest bidder.

Appreciated. Sometimes good fun spirals into juvenile behavior that even annoys me and I'm a joker.

I haven't really looked into it yet and was going to pretty much rely on the Dealer's choice. However, after reviewing this thread, I should be more proactive. Hence, what guys think it should cost for a good covered transport from the East coast to the SF Bay Area? $2.5k-$3.5k?

Not me but my cousin has experienced this once when he was transporting his car from California to Florida. That was his worst experience as it took almost 10 days for his car to reach the target location. But after getting familiar to Florida Transporter through this article source and hiring them to get his car transported for the second time, he never faced the situation of late delivery of his vehicle. I too believe that choosing the right transportation service, which gives the full assurance of on-time delivery of the automobile, is really important.

Of course you should! It’s very dangerous to deal with such companies. That can lose your car and disappear! Better find another service. I’ve used a good one, and the most important thing: safe one. These guys delivered my car in two days from Dallas to Washington in perfect condition and clean! The price was awesome, so I’m totally satisfied with this service. My advice is to change the company as fast as you can until they didn’t do something with your car! Try this best car transportation service
