May have found a truck in witchita kansas - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bigarmzz · 01-30-2015, 10:17 PM

ok, I "may" have found a truck, but its in witchita Kansas....problem is I have to get it here to me in elkins wva (something like 1,100 miles)

any of you all know how I could get this here for $500?

flying out there and driving it back isn't an option, i'm a puss and wont fly

any ideas? I have 4 kids and work too much to be able to drive out there

I just got quoted prices from Arizona to northern Michigan which is roughly 2000 miles for around $1150.00. That price was door to door.

1.00-200 amile is about right. guy i use runs inclosed 48 trailer with a rebuilt 71 autocar. its all he does. i work in the trucking field any less then a buck its not realy worth it

pointer80 · 02-02-2015, 03:40 PM

I know nothing about trucking but I am getting prices anywhere from 1150 to the highest was 1375 and that was roughly 1900+ miles. I know some of that is broker fees. My friend just had a 85 dodge ramcharger delivered to Michigan from san fran. valley area and that cost him 1400.00 which 200.00 was broker fee. That was door to door.

86c20 · 02-02-2015, 04:49 PM

the other thing that on must remember to is this. is the pick up and drop off close to a normal route that they run? if yes then its alot cheaper. guy i use lives on the island with me so it is not out of the way at all. but if your pickup is middle of nowhere and same as the drop off. its the time lost that you then pay for

3672300 · 02-02-2015, 06:00 PM

How are you guys paying these sellers? Im out of state from the truck I found. I am having a board member go look at it for me but still wondering how to pay the seller somewhat sight unseen. Ideas?

Try U ship.com

pointer80 · 02-02-2015, 07:47 PM

u-ship is a rip off. I have a nephew right outside of phoenix so he went and inspected the truck and then I sent the money to his checking account and he went and payed for it for me.

86c20 · 02-02-2015, 09:43 PM
