Reading the threads about getting cars from point A to point B; most
discussion is with Auto Transporters- Now folks have mentioned that the
cost from one country to another via a shipping container has been in
the $600- $800 range.
My question is '  Has no one taken the same approach for trans-US?'
Why not hire a container- roll the car in and secure it, insure it , and
send it on it's merry way?  If it works so well going across the ocean
why not across the good 'ol USA?
