Questions for this shipment:

Question: Can this vehicle be driven to the destination? (1/10/2009)

Response: Yes it can. (1/12/2009)

Response: Does it require a CDL licensed driver? If not, I can pick it up in two days and deliver same day. (1/12/2009)

Response: I´m pretty sure you need a CDL license as well as some transport tags. (1/12/2009)

Question: How soon do you need this done? I am assuming that you are going to allow a driveaway, or do you need this hauled? (1/10/2009)

Response: It can be driven to its destination. I want it done this week. The sooner the better. (1/12/2009)

Question: Hello, I have my CDL/A and would drive this back to CHGO for you if you have the TEMP tag and REG available to go with on the trip. Thanks Corey (woppcop01) (1/12/2009)

Response: We don´t have the transport tag and license. The service provider must have one or get one in order to drive the truck away. (1/12/2009)

Question: Hi check out our profile if you are flexable on your dates could do this for $ 550.00 would that work for you ? We have everything needed to drive this for you & know that a CDL is required for this truck. (1/12/2009)

Response: Please go ahead and place a bid. I will accept the bid given the terms we have already discussed. However, the truck must be picked up on the 20th at the latest. (1/15/2009)

Response: Hi when you did not respond for 3 days we thought it was no deal & booked another truck. We could still do this, however at this time with the weather the way its is around here, & the truck that took your spot enroute to be delivered we can not meet your time frame. Thanks Mark.

Response: I tried accepting your bid, but apparently it has expired. Please understand that I was away all day and just recently returned to find both your emails here. The reason I asked you to rebid is that you seem to have a good reputation among uship users. The drive from the lot where the truck is located to its final destination is about 5 hours. If you feel you can still do it, please bid, but bid for more than one day so I have time to accept your bid and respond to your emails. If you can do it on Tuesday, it's still fine by me. (1/17/2009)

Question: Are you certain about the height? The weight is definately incorrect, I would like to place a bid to haul it on a trailer but need accurate height. thank you (1/20/2009)

Response: We are not certain about the height. The truck was purchased at an auction and we were given no details regarding its weight or dimensions. We tried to estimate these, but cannot be sure how close they are to the trucks' real weight and dimensions. However, the truck runs and drives, so it would be probably be a lot easier for you to drive it to its destination, or send someone to drive it to its destination. (1/20/2009)

Question: What is the value of the truck? I will need this to quote rate including insurance. (1/21/2009)
