I am looking to see if anyone would be willing to haul a Green Diamond 233 Engine with attached transmission. They are mounted in a frame assembly and the owner can load. Should be able to be hauled in a 3/4 ton or larger pickup. Please let me know or otherwise it looks like a road trip.

Thank You

You might get lucky and find someone, but I think, if you have the time, a round trip might be cheapest for you. Figure 10MPG, round trip would run about $265.00 and your time.
If you can find someone That is going that way and has the room, It is going to cost close to a $1.00 a mile, maybe a little cheaper. I just hauled a Mercedes up your way from Boise and it was a $1000 to do it, and it was a dead head back pulling an empty trailer. That worked out to $1.00 a mile for the round trip. A long 20 hour day.

Yes, I know. If this had been about two weeks ago, I could have helped out, I went through Moscow twice on my way to Spokane to deliver a trailer. Road trips are "fun". Just took a Mercedes up above Seattle Three days ago, this was from Boise to there and deadhead back, was a long day of driving.
