Default Any auto transport recommendations Phoenix to Bay Area?

I am flying to Phoenix next week to look at and hopefully purchase a C7Z and originally thought about driving back, but 12 hours and alone doesn't sound too appetizing. Also the fact that my wife is mad she can't go with me doesn't help.

Anyone have any recommendations for a great company to use? Looking for enclosed transport only.

thanks

You can try these. They are a bit pricey but you get what you pay for.

I've had great experience using Intercity Lines. Make sure you use Intercity Lines as there is another company called Intercity Auto Transport or something like that with a similar name. There was a thread on another forum where someone mistakenly used the wrong Intercity, and it didn't end well. Intercity Lines was very professional, the car didn't leave the trailer from pick up to delivery, I had a cell phone contact number in which I could call the driver throughout the delivery trip. I would receive updates every so often as well. When the truck arrived, it was a guy and his wife that did this together and had worked for Intercity for years. They were exceptionally friendly and it was a real pleasure to work with them. I would not hesitate to use them again! Intercity wasn't the cheapest, but they weren't the most expensive either.

I'm not too far away from Danville......I will get on the list volunteer to help you drive it back too! I gotta feeling that you've been getting a lot of people willing to help you with this task for some reason!? Lol!

BTW, do you ever get out to the Blackhawk Cars and Coffee? I usually try to hit every one of those as the turnouts are pretty good. Maybe I'll run across your new C7Z out there in the future!

Call Pilot Transport. They haul cars for Lingenfelter. I believe they have an office/yard in Phoenix. They hauled my C4 from Las Vegas to Michigan for me.
