Questions for this shipment: 

Question: That is one sharp lookin truck! I'm waiting on a reply on another shipment near you and if it works out I can bring your truck back to Tex. at the same time early next week. My uship feedback is 11-0. Would Tuesday the 27th be an acceptable delivery date? (5/24/2008)
Response: Yes, that would be great timing for me. What is your pricing for the trip? Thanks! Gene (5/24/2008)
Response: I hope to get my other bid ok'd shortly and I could get your truck to you for $750. That includes $100,000 cargo ins. for your protection. My uship feedback is now 12-0 with no cancellations plus I can provide plenty of references upon your request. Please reply if this is agreeable and I will place my bid. I appreciate your consideration.... (5/24/2008)
Response: Great, that price will work, especially if you can deliver the truck by the 27th. I don't have access to my computer very often, but will try and check back tonight. If your other bid comes in, please let me know as soon as possible so I can get you in touch with the seller to coordinate pickup. Thanks for getting in touch, hope to hear back from you soon. Thanks! Gene (5/24/2008)
Response: AFTERTHOUGHT... mONDAY IS A HOLIDAY.. Can I get it anyway? (5/24/2008)
Response: that shouldn't be a problem, the seller is available... Thanks Gene (5/25/2008)
Question: Hello, can this vehicle be driven to it's destination? Check my feedback under HunterServices. Having it driven is actually faster and safer than having it put on a trailer to criss-cross the country! I will not bid on a job that I am not prepared to finish, only having to cancel because I cannot do it. Don’t trust your vehicle to a broker or a carrier that has negative feedback and/or many cancellations! I am a former firefighter, paramedic, 911 dispatcher and military veteran. I have driven everything from ambulances to fire trucks to recreational vehicles. Would like to bid on your business. Thanks! Rod (5/24/2008)
Response: Hello Rod, Thanks for your note, appreciate your offer, but I would prefer the truck being shipped at this time. If I do not get a satisfacotry bid or the timing for other delivery options is too far away, I will contact you again. Cheers Gene (5/24/2008)
Question: 6:30 p.m. update---still waiting on reply on other job that I am low bidder on. YOU sir will be the 1st to know when I know. My apology for the wait.... (5/24/2008)
Response: Monday pick-up should be ok. I am the winning bidder, but have talked with seller and was told he would be available and around all weekend if I could arrange shipping. I'll check first thing tomorrow morning to see if you have secured the other bid. Thanks! Gene (5/24/2008)
Response: I'm still waiting... He has not been online since noon. Sure would like to know something soon. I will continue to monitor the situation and keep you informed. Thanx for your patience!!! (5/24/2008)
Response: ok... (5/25/2008)
Question: SUNDAY morning 8a.m. Still no word to any of the 4 bidders on the other job. This will put everything back one day at best. I am off to church and related activities until 5p.m. The other listing is 5 pallets from OK. to Tex. if you would like to monitor the site. If you get a bid to do this sooner I will understand. Thanks again... (5/25/2008)
Response: Hello David, I'm writing in hopes that you might be able to help me out. The shipper I agreed with has come down with significant trailer issues enroute to picking up my truck and is unable to say whether or not they will be able to get it fixed and/or a replacement in a timely manner. Is there any chance you might be able to deliver the truck? thanks! Gene (5/28/2008)
Response: SUNDAY 5:35p.m. Apparently he took the weekend off, but he wanted his stuff picked up tomorrow or Tue. I suspect we will not hear until tom. a.m. I am still low bidder and my hopes are high that I will be allowed to do your job and his. Can you hang in there until tom. a.m.? (5/25/2008)
Response: haven't got a better offer yet, you are still in the running. Please let me know something soon or I'll have to resort to calling major haulers and just waiting to get it shipped... (5/27/2008)
Question: Hi i will be coming through OK. monady morning headed to bryan texas and if your truck can be driven i will do it for 700 and it will have $500,000 in ins.coverage!Thanks Lucious (5/25/2008)
Response: thanks for the offer, but I would rather the truck be shipped. Appreciate the bid... Cheers Gene (5/25/2008)
Response: Hi what about 800 and i put it on the car hauler? (5/25/2008)
Response: I might be interested depending on potential delivery timing. I am wanting to get the truck here asap, so would consider this bid if you could deliver quickly. Thanks Gene (5/27/2008)
Response: How soon do you want to get this done? I might be able to get a truck up there today and get back to you in Houston in the morning or late tonight! (5/27/2008)
Response: That is definitely the timing I was hoping for. Previous bidders seem to have fallen through, so if you can get this done that quickly, that would be great. I'm away from the computer for the next couple of hours, will check back in around 10am CST. thanks Gene (5/27/2008)
Response: My truck can leave Bryan around 4 today with 2 drivers and we can drop it to you in the morning if that will work for you! (5/27/2008)
Response: What time would you be picking up the truck in Tulsa? I would need to get you in contact with the seller of the truck to coordinate pickup time and place... Gene (5/27/2008)
Response: I'm not sure how long it takes but i'm thinking 4or5 hours one way. Then i can deliver it to you first thing in the morning! (5/27/2008)
Response: Hello Lucious, I'm pretty sure it is a much longer trip. Google has a Tulsa to Houston trip at 500 miles, just over 8 hours. I would expect that best case scenario would be for you to pick up the truck early Wednesday morning (say around 8am) and then deliver late tomorrow night if you have a tandem driving team. I'm ok with a late night delivery, but don't want to put out the seller with a pickup outside of regular business hours. Have you verified that the trailer you've got scoped out for the transport can easily manage the size of this truck? Do you carry standard insurance cover on the item or is that an additional charge? Thanks! Gene (5/27/2008)
Response: If you are ready to book us now i can see how far my other truck is away and have them get it with the single car hauler! We carry regular ins.but we do offer full replacement for 300 extra!We have a txdot and a usdot number! (5/27/2008)
Response: Hello Lucious, Can you give me an idea of what your normal insurance covers? Thanks Gene (5/27/2008)
Response: The normal ins. is the 100,000 cargo but you know how ins. companies do the blue book value! The full value that i told you about is the truck will be covered for whatever you say the truck is worth on the bill of sale! (5/27/2008)
Response: Cool, so it sounds like the vehicle would be covered by your $100,000 cargo insurance as the bill of sale is much smaller than that value. How do we proceed from here? I'm really wanting to get the vehicle here as soon as possible as it would be a big help having around the house this coming weekend. Cheers Gene (5/27/2008)
Response: You can book me now after i rebid for the 800!Then you will get all my contact info! (5/27/2008)
Response: One last question for you...I'm seeing your bid at $838 - is the $38 fees charged by uship? I will accept this bid under the following conditions - please send note with agreement of terms (timing). I will then accept your bid and we can coordinate pick-up and delivery... 1) Pick-up of vehicle on Wednesday, May 28, 2008 between 8am - 5pm 2) Delivery of vehicle on Wednesday, May 28, 2008 before 9pm or anytime between 8am-6pm on Thursday, May 29, 2008. thanks! Gene (5/27/2008)
Response: Yes they get thier part!We can probably pick the truck up today!I am waitng to hear from my guys that can pick it up today! (5/27/2008)
Response: sounds good, let me know when you know something and I'll accept the bid and you can coordinate pickup today. Thanks! Gene (5/27/2008)
Response: Hey Gene we can leave bryan in about a hour!Let me know!Thanks Lucious (5/27/2008)
Response: Ok, let's do it. I'll put you in contact with the seller of the vehicle so you can arrange pickup tomorrow morning. Cheers Gene (5/27/2008)
Question: Mon. 10:18 a.m.- I would be loading your truck by now had things gone as planned, and we both would be happy. BUT-- looks like there will not be a reply from you know who until he gets to work tom. If that is the case that would put me in Tulsa wed. a.m. with a thurs. a.m. del. to you. I,m ready to go and can't and I KNOW how you feel. I will keep in touch until you say different...David (5/26/2008)
Response: ok (5/27/2008)
Question: Gene I have been notified that drivers in my area must attend a mandatory USDOT audit early thurs. a.m. I cannot do your job and return in time for that. To make matters worse the other guy disregarded his listing on uship over the weekend. We could have gotten it all done. I truly wish you best results on getting your truck in a timely, safe manner. David (5/27/2008)
Response: Hello David, I had accepted a bid for delivery of my truck last week, unfortunately, it has completely fallen through and I have requested cancellation. Any chance you might be able to deliver the truck this week for me? Thanks! Gene (6/3/2008)
