    Are you asking what the condition of the truck is? And I don’t know what you are trying to say in that middle sentence. And why would it matter if I like dogs or not?

    LOL, well if someone were to drive it up to you I sure hope specific items won't break on them which could end up costing you more. The dog thing was for me. If I did decide to do this I'd have to take my dog with me. Can't leave her home alone. hehehe.

    Well it would deffinetly be a concern having someone bring it to me somehow. Add the fact that I don’t actually personally know anyone here it’s a huge risk. But, if a established member had a flatbed and a diesel i might consider it.

    Having it shipped freightliner means that it’s completly covered. Even it if shows up with a scratch that wasn’t there when it left. So it’s really the best way to go. It not a bad price really.

    I didn’t ever really expect someone to even consider doing something like that anyway. So I’m fine with just doing what I was planning on doing from the start.

    EDIT: BTW I do like dogs. I have one but I wouldn’t want someone else’s dog in such a clean truck when I don’t know anything about it.

    I have used transporters before. Might look around for some prices, confirm that they have insurance and ask what does their insurance cover.

    Haha yea as awesome as that would be, insurance and liability is the biggest thing stopping that. What happens if they are in an accident on the way? It just doesn’t seem worth the risk, so I understand the OP paying for shipping, and when you consider gas +plane ticket back, it’s not a bag price.
