Well it's finally time to get my 2 to the shop for some upgrades.
After checking the maximum towing capacity of my daily driver, I've decided it's probably easier to ship my MR2 the 400+ miles rather than drive or tow it. This of course creates a bunch of other logistic challenges. Has anyone here shipped their cars before? I've been given the name of a scheduling company called UShip which has sent me a dozen or so haulers that can do it (price quotes included) which is a really good start. Does anyone here have any recommendations for haulers you've used? Also, what are some of the details I need to cover to ensure a successful journey? For example- the clearance of my aftermarket chin spoiler is only 5". How does one make sure the hauler is equipped to handle this? Any other things I need to be aware of or consider?
As always, thanks to you all for your guidance, it's appreciated!
