I am actually in the LA area and I am getting my Telly from the same dealer. Did you go 3rd party or did you use the dealer? I am hoping to get this same price!

If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Anyone use enclosed transport recently for shipping their car? Having a hard time choosing a company to go with
______________________________
I did not use enclosed. I used ship a car direct, a broker, and they did an excellent job finding a carrier to transport from Muncie, IN to Atlanta.

Would you mind sharing which broker you ended up going with?
It isn’t sent to your dealer enclosed, and the semi isn’t going any faster than you will in the car. I don’t see the point 
______________________________
@Medloch3 For reference, I looked at Montway, Ship a car direct, Sherpa and a few other. All the prices were similar. Was hoping to go with AmeriFreight but they were not responsive. Montway, Ship a car direct and Sherpa were all very responsive. I checked BBB, number of years in service, and customer reviews. I landed with Ship a car because they provided a rebate for doing an online review, were super responsive and they provided extra coverage in case of damage during delivery. Having said that, they all use the same "marketplace" to put in bids. It also depends on the carrier that picked up the job. I felt reassured with the extra insurance coverage from ship a car. Hope this helps and good luck to you.

My dealership picked the company and I just went with them. The price was similar to what I found online.

That's way too much. Peak Kia North to LA was $650
Yeah it's weird. I could have sworn others said it would be about $700 ordering from the same dealer. Do you mind sharing the info for the person you worked with at Peak? Do you recommend them?

I bought my GWP-SX-P-N T-Ride from Lawrence Kia in Kansas and got it transported for free to Colorado Springs, CO. I paid over MSRP for the specific trim I wanted, so that is why. During the negotiations, they said I would have to pay around $450 for an open transport. I bugged them a lot about getting quality transport (and other things), given what I paid. In the end, they provided a covered trailer transport for free - which really made me happy with my guilt for paying over MSRP. The guy who took the transport contract from the dealership was a super nice guy. Here is his card - no idea what he charges, since I didn't hire him, but he can put your T-Ride in his covered trailer if you can work it out with BJ. (Be sure to ask him what the strangest thing is that he ever transported!)
