    Gruen,

    I have used Transport Masters (from Palm Beach County) twice with good results. As an example, I paid $1200 from Idaho to Ft. Lauderdale in an enclosed air ride trailer.

    FYI, they are only brokers. You can contact Shirin at (561) 482-7789

    No relation here just a happy customer. I got their info from their ad on Autoweek.

    Intercity charged me $1480 from St Louis to LA. They were the best quote I got and car was well cared for. I'd use again. Only issue is be on them for scheduling.
    Cheers,

    not intercity

    I tried to use intercity for a daily driver I needed brought from NC to NJ, I was turning in a leased car, so I had about a 6 week window....they kept telling me "next week" which became "later this week" towards the end....when I was really running out of time, I flew down and drove it home...and swore I would never let anyone I know use intercity.

    I was treated with disdain by the salesperson as well as the owner of intercity.

    When I posted this on other boards I couldn't believe the number of folks who chimed in with "me too" stories.

    most transporters have stories associated with them, and I would expect to hear some negatives about the bottom-feeders, but intercity goes after the high-end folks....but gives lousy service.

    never again.

    I have used Thomas Sunday twice with good results. Also Intercity and Gold Rush. Sunday is probably my first choice.

    I had Thomas Sunday transport a car from VA to CO.
    Would not hesitate to use them again, great service.
    TS does not service Florida.

    My experience with Intercity was the same as above (sonett43)
