I used Montway Auto Transport twice for cross country moves from MD > CA and then CA > VA. Both times I used the enclosed transport which wasn't much more at all.

I highly recommend them.

Here's what you need to know though:

- the date that they schedule the initial pickup is just an estimate, not a guarantee. Same with delivery but that's easier for them to predict once they are en route to you. For pickup factor in +-3 days from the date you initially pick out (example, you select Wednesday, they say they have a driver for pickup on Monday as you get closer to pickup date).

Delivery should be about 3-4 days after pickup. The reason is all to do with truck routes and availability. They usually have two drivers and take turns driving nonstop.

If you're having a dealer or private seller sell the car to you and arrange for them to meet the driver, it's less of an issue. It was very stressful for me though trying to time them picking up my car before I stepped on a plane for good leaving my former state behind. Plan with a few days buffer.

Someone MUST be there for pickup and delivery to authorize. Plan accordingly.

- there are less trucks on the road doing enclosed transport, thus availability for pickup/delivery is harder than open transport. But for a car this nice it's not worth open transport, especially this time of year crossing winter weather en route.
