Anyone got recommendations for getting a GAMA Goat from Rancho Cucamomga to Augusta?

Plan to self drive fell through and 4K seems a bit steep.

I’m going to Cali when my euc clears to pick up my MTVR, I wonder if it would fit in the bed of my truck? If so, it wouldn’t be 4K (;

Goat is 20 feet long, won’t fit in MTVR. That’s the issue with the haul cost, takes up most of a drop deck trailer. Rates around $2/mile for those.

If hes not in a hurry for the goat you would be smart to try to share the shipment costs eli. You may get em both for 4600 shipped together since its close to Atlanta and near the Ritchie brothers yard near you eli. And then forget the recovery costs and possible problems on that 7 ton

For a single float move, sure, but no reason it won't fit on a car carrier if ones headed in the right direction. If it's the going rate, then I pay it, just looking to see what options might exist.

driving it isn't really advisable, long way for a two stroke diesel. Trailer it your self. F 350 will pull it with ease runs around 8000 lbs . I have pulled them many miles with no issues. Even if you had to rent a truck and trailer your still only looking at 1 k get a Unlimited miles truck . Best deals are near airports, If your old enough use the AARP free upgrade!
