Lets see, that is me and you, with rigs to move, are you saying I need to find another?
I am running out of hiding places for them up here, the wife is getting suspicious, that they are not all the same one :)

Hey Mike, just checked with Direct Express, now that I understand their process, unlikely to be prices lower then $800 more or less.(Quote $825).
Will see how this side job looks
But yes we may need to fill up a truck. :)
Hahaha

Gas cost for a semi should be around $900(one way), plus labor 30 hours or so @ $30 per hour is another $900. Car haulers carry seven or so cars. so the true cost if loaded both ways is about $300 per vehicle and double that if dead heading.
So if we can get hauled for $600 that would probably be the absolute best price.

Pretty much my same conclusion, $800 for a single haul with a broker is not out of line, the haulers with a single load trailer quoting $1600 is not out line either given the costs. I need to buy 6 more of them to drive the average cost down :)

You guys don't want any rigs from Az they're not all rusty. You'd stick out like a sore thumb up there in the land of 10,000 lakes and tons of road salt. You can't take an FSJ ice fishing they're to heavy. :D Just kidding.

FSJ's were popular b4 snowmobiles, they just didn't last as long :( due to the mountains of Mortons

You guys, let them sit out in the sun and get all over baked, you guys let the sun cook the paint off, let the rubber turn to dust, we are just rescuing them from the unappreciative and undeserving.

No question, having to hide the stuff in cow barns, the garage, and in the mother in-laws undergroung 6 months out of the year is a PITA, vs. letting them cook in the field 24/7/365, at least the metal is OK after they are baked.
