auto transport

Does anyone know of an inexpensive yet reliable auto transportation firm?

I friend of mine is looking to transport a clean Miata MX-5 from Ft. Lauderdale to Albany, NY. I figured it would not be too expensive considering its originating from FL.

Email me details or my friend at robers@rpi.edu.

Much appreciated!

A transporter from the S/E will probably cost $400-$600. If he has the time, it might be cheapest to fly down on a $100 one-way ticket and drive it back.

I've gotten 3 quotes so far, ranging from $685 to $995. Looks like we'll be driving that Miata back. Thanks.

Try Stewart Transport.

They deliver Factory Five kits all over the country and are often deadheading home. I'm sure they would be happy to have something coming back. Albany's close enough on the return trip.

Mickey, welcome to Albany! Do you attend the RPI AutoX's? I did a few last year and they were fun. Send me a PM if you want details.

Thanks Man! Actually been living in Albany for three years and in Troy for 11 before that! What's even funnier is that I went to RPI and now I work for RPI! Nothing like paying back debt to your employer!

My friend at work was looking for a Racing Green Miata for under $7K in perfect condition. She finally found one in FL, she flew down but had no way of getting it back in time. So, instead of paying the money to have transported, she's making a trip of it by flying down and taking a week to drive it back up.

RPI autoXs! Love them! Small courses, great students, lots of runs. Unfortunately for them, they have low budgets, yet try their best and have fun doing so. When's the next one? I never figured out how to get on their mailing list? Help a brother out. mossad@rpi.edu
