I called him yesterday for a quote. Really nice guy and I feel comfortable doing business with him and I’m super picky.

I called this guy, as well as emailed him in the last couple of days. I never received a response in any fashion. I would think one would call back, even if they could not/did not want the job.

Intercity and Reliable both turned down the job, however they did respond and let me know. Job is a c5 from WY to TX.

I messaged him earlier this summer and he replied he would get right back to me when stopped at a rest stop. Sent a follow up as I never heard back and again nothing. Sounds like good reviews but if there is a problem with communication.
Looking to ship my ZR to Florida soon so need a RELIABLE carrier soon.

Yeah...I've been setting things up with him preliminarily and he's answered within a few hours each time. We've texted a good bit too. Hope he responds soon..I think it's an awesome company from what I can tell so far.

Thanks Guys! Tried him again and he got back with me! What a delightful Gentleman! I’ve been following his FB page and he does a lot of high end cars! Hope to get things set soon so I can escape the cold !

I contacted him about a quote and his communication wasn’t that great. Didn’t call or text back when he said he would and didn’t seem too interested in my business but the one time I did hear from him he seemed nice. Without those issues he probably does a fine job with the transport aspect but because of the lack of comunication I chose to use the company I have used previously with great results.

I try to escape the Michigan Cold and snow and head South near JAX. Then I can play cars more than here where my Unicorn has been sitting for the majority of the time since I got it ;/

I contacted him about a quote and his communication was absolutely horrible. Finally after calls and texts he got back to me. He didn’t seem too interested in my business, his quote was $1100 more than Intercity Lines. Then tells me no need to go to East coast to get a car, there is plenty of them here in the Midwest​​​​​. I’m like really dude now your telling me where to get a car from. Unbelievable! No thank you!

I just used Tri to ship my ZR from Michigan to Florida. After a bad experience with my Z I was hesitant to ship. Tri happened to be on the East side of the state when I called and came right over to get the car. Ran it up to his home in Wisconsin and safely arrived in Florida a few days later. He kept me updated along the way with pictures and calls. Truck was nice and he used race ramps. He deals with a lot of high end cars so maybe he was just trying to be helpful with the tip on where to find cars. Pricing was in line with others . Would definitely recommend.

Recently sent off transport availability/price quotes for my newly-built (TPW 2/4/19) ZR1 (#1787: SGM/A8/3ZR black perf w/ red stitch/belts/calipers/low wing/Museum Delivery 2/22/19) to Tri-Logistics, Plycar, Nationwide, Intercity + Reliable). Only 2 responses: Nationwide got my business (only one that responded avail before end of Feb) to transport to CA Bay Area for $2250. Will let you all know how it went upon receipt... Do you tip the driver upon delivery (this is obviously my first time) and if so, how much? Thanks in advance.

I tipped the driver $100. After making sure there was no damage to the car of course.
