I've used reliable twice to ship cars to Barrett Jackson. No issues drivers were friendly and careful with the cars.

The one I just bought is an inTech. All aluminum, all beams on 16&quot; centers, 5000lb Dexter torsion axles with electric brakes, all led lights, one piece roof and aluminum vapor layer under the floor. They're custom built to your specs and your car's specs.

I'm sorry. I should have mentioned the size. 8.5x24 with an extended tongue. I planned on getting that anyway, but the salesman reminded me that should I ever want to sell it, that option would increase potential buyers by 50% because that's what is required for mobile homes to pull it. It's just the right size for a full size Chevy with room for the cabinets. You can get away with a shorter one if you have smaller cars. I opted for a 7ft interior height because I'm 5'18&quot;. Yes, I looked at many brands, even more expensive ones that have a huge reputation. I found all of them did not meet the quality or features of inTech. They threw in a piece of that black coin rubber floor covering for the top of the bench and it's in the tool box drawers too.
And NO, I don't get any kick-backs.

They provide a customer portal and upload photos of the construction each day. This one is after the FIRST day.


I bought this ramp in case of flats and mailed it to them to install on the wall. I just figured they'd screw the bracket on but they finished it off with framed carpet so it wouldn't smudge the wall. They did that on their own, no charge.

Bill, The options definitely add up. I'd guess a 26fter might hit $23K. You could save some money if you're willing to install the battery/charger pack, winch, interior lighting and electric tongue jack yourself but I wanted a turn key set up. The 4&quot; floor risers were expensive but I needed them so I could open the car door all the way through the side door. Some people would be fine with a few 2x12s to drive on. Or you could just tell them to build it with a raised floor to accomplish the same ending. I'd have a 10ft tall trailer if I did that.
The side door and upper cabinets all are top hinged with gas shocks. I don't have to worry about slicing my head open from the corner of a door.

Verne


PS: Take your time with the photos. I'm sure you have more important things to do.
