Does anyone know how to get in the game hauling new cars out of the port in Houston? I don't think USAL or Hansen is hauling them I've seen the cars on independent carrier so I would like to get in the game.

On new cars, spot buy moves come straight from the manufacturers. Sometimes to another carrier, sometimes to a broker. Take a peek on Central and see if somebody is offering a bunch of loads out of there.

GM Flint it's Jack Cooper. Now if Jack Cooper can't move the vehicles because of capacity issues then Ryder will do single runs, although I really don't know how they handle that. -
At FCA, I'm not sure how the haulaway contract is setup (we never had a ramp contract with them,) but spot buys are handled the same as Ford.

United road jack key proficient mccollister are some of the names that pull out of houston. Seems to be mostly audi and vw in there with porsches bentleys lambos sprinkled in. Jack key has the audi vw coming back east across 10. Last i heard united road had them going up into the midwest

I have never seen rates out of Houston port as a sub worth pursuing. I picked up audis there one time.

Thanks guys, I'm just curious I will do some more checking. It is right that VW imported from Europe are at this port, not sure what the pay is perhaps not worth the trouble.
