Questions for this shipment: 

Question: HI! Thank you for the bid request, but we will not be in your area anytime soon. Thanks again, Melissa. Interstate Auto Shippers (8/14/2008)
Response: No problem. Thank you. (8/20/2008)
Question: DOES THESE HAVE TO SHIP ALL TOGETHER IF NOT I CAN TAKE YOUR CAR AT THE FIRST OF THE WEEK FOR 650.00 THANKS TOM (8/14/2008)
Response: I would perfer it goes all at once. I only have a limited budget. If i sent the car for $650 that wouldn't leave me much to get the trailer and box scraper moved. Do you not have a large enough trailer for these items? (8/14/2008)
Response: NO IM SORRY I ONLY A 18FT CAR HAULER WISH I COULD HELP YOU OUT ON THIS ONE BUT CANT ACCOMADATE ALL THANKS TOM (8/14/2008)
Response: thank you for your time. (8/14/2008)
Question: I have a trailer big enough to do everything and I drop stuff off @ the Peterbuilt truck place all the time. My question is how much are you looking to or think this will cost to ship? Let me know and if its something I can do I will bid this for you. (8/14/2008)
Response: I have a $700 budget on this. And a $700 book it now. (8/14/2008)
Response: Sorry but 700 wont pay for me to do both, they take the space of two cars. If it was closer to $1000.00 then I could do it for you maybe. Sorry Again (8/15/2008)
Response: Their also a box scraper to go along with this that needs picked up in buffalo NY. It will fit next to the trailer *IF* the trailer is off to one side. I can't do $1000. How long is your trailer? (8/15/2008)
Response: Trailer is 35 feet long and sorry but the price of $1000.00 is the least I would do it for but I am sure if you hang in there long enough you will get a cheaper NON COMPLIANT BID. Thanks for writing back (8/15/2008)
Response: Compliant or not, i do not care. I just need this stuffed moved. I could go $800 possibly. (8/21/2008)
Response: Looks like my $1000 bid is the loweat so far, I am glad you know our part of the trucking industry so well and if I got 12 to 14 pulling my 35 foot enclosed trailer I might be able to do it cheaper but sorry I only get 10mpg. Maybe your friend that gets all that GREAT FUEL MILEAGE can help you out for cheap. Good Luck (8/21/2008)
Response: its a 18ft. car trailer. he has a few mods done to increase his fuel mileage. my truck gets around 6mpg. (8/21/2008)
Question: thanks for the request.. Miles, weight, size and the cost of fuel in NY doesnt come close to 700.00.. The guy for a 1000.00 is doing you a HUGE favor. Diesel in Watertown is still at 4.80 per gallon! (8/18/2008)
Response: Oh i understand about fuel prices. I have my own truck. I want to see if a guy with a smaller truck could do it for cheaper. It would cost me about $450 just in fuel to get this stuff up their with my semi, at 6mpg. I would consider a bid close to my target of $700, but i think $1000 a little much for a truck that gets about 8-12mpg (a guy that runs a dualie with a 1 car trailer that i know gets around 12mpg loaded). I run down the road with my semi for about 2- 2.50 a mile, i cant see paying $1000 for something that is so much cheaper to operate. (8/18/2008)
Response: Well it sounds like you know the world of LTL freight then.. Each peice is a seperate entity.. Id drag either one up there for you for 500.00.. Fuel, tolls, food and a days pay pretty much.. but the combo would be more, well you know.. hey your getting 2.50 a mile thats great! well anyway good luck with this stuff.. Rivs are one of my favorite cars that that one looks great.. (8/18/2008)
Question: its hard to find shipments that far up north to come back with... i think i would have to pass on it... best i can do is 1110.. thanks... (8/21/2008)
Response: I understand. I've been trying to find something coming back down from their for a while and it's hard. So i thought i might put it on here and see if it could help someone out, I'm still looking for stuff going up and back down. I have a 45' skate board with sides, i can easily fit all this stuff on it plus more, but dont want to deadhead all the way back home. How long is your wagon? (8/21/2008)
Response: got 30 ft trailer with pick up truck... (8/21/2008)
Response: What do you get for fuel milage? 10-15mpg? (8/21/2008)
Response: we have multiple trucks.. 9.. 12.. 14.. (8/21/2008)
Response: A buddy of mine has a chevy dualie with a duramax, gets around 14mpg with a load on. But he only has a 18ft car/equipment trailer. Well if something changes let me know. Thank you for your time! (8/21/2008)
Response: i dont really want to work on something coming back unlees i know this is a deal... if we can do between the first and the 5th and your customers are ok with that then we will work on stuff coming back... (8/21/2008)
Response: what kind of money are we talking? fuel at the mr. fuel in youngstown is at $3.99/gallon. (8/21/2008)
Response: if you can accept bid now... we will pick up around the 4th and deliver within 24 hrs... but need you to accept bid now to line up other shipments coming and going... price is 1110 firm... thanks.. (8/22/2008)
Response: How would you like payment? half now and the other half upon delivery? (8/22/2008)
Response: you can pay just pay couple hundred up front and rest on delivery.. (8/22/2008)
Response: do you take paypal? (8/22/2008)
Response: yes... we do take paypal... thanks... (8/22/2008)
Question: Hi! Check out my feedback by clicking on my name! When is this ready to go? What are deadlines for pickup and Dropoff? What days and hours can pickup and dropoff be done? What engine and transmission does this have? Is it gas or diesel? Does it have a hitch? Will it make the trip OK if I drive it for you? Please let me know right away so I can figure my low bid for you! Thanks! Dave (8/22/2008)
Response: HAHAHAHAHA. Your such a clown! You didnt read the listing at all! (8/22/2008)
Response: Hi! Thanks For Your Reply! I Was Talking About About The Toronado Only! (Guess I Wrongly Assumed You Would Be Able To Figure That Out!) If I Drive Your Car For You, Someone With Pickup With Empty Hitch Could Tow Your Water Trailer For You And Get This Done! Please Let Me Know If This Works For You By Answering My Original Questions And I'll Figure My Low Bid For You! Thanks! Dave (8/22/2008)
Response: do you have transport tags and insurance? How much would it cost for you to drive the car? the trailer cannot be pulled by a pickup it has to be hauled along with the box scraper. (8/22/2008)
Question: Hi i could fit all of this on my 32' trailer depending on ho big the box scraper is. Do you have dimensions for box scraper? We are planning family trip from ma to oh and could do this near you target price. We usually average around 12 mpg for total trip pulling trailer empty one way. thanks harry (8/22/2008)
Response: Hello! If the water tank trailer is set off to one side the box scraper should fit next to it. It might even fit under the tank. the scraper i think is 6' long and around 2' wide. I hope to hear back from you! (8/22/2008)
Response: HI it looks like everything will fit on the trailer no problem. I do not have winch will there be help to load and unload the trailer? Do you have a preferred date for this shipment? Thanks harry (8/23/2008)
Response: Hello. If your here to pick up during the hours of 8am and 4pm the guys in the shop can load the trailer for you. No preferred date, hopefully within the next month. What would your bid be? (8/23/2008)
Response: Would do for$700 plus deposit. (8/23/2008)
Response: the uship deposit? (8/23/2008)
Question: We could set up trip in the next 2 weeks or so. Thanks harry (8/23/2008)
Response: that sounds GREAT! Will you place a formal bid and i'll accept it. (8/23/2008)
