    I was en route to Oregon when she decided to breakdown on me. Had to have Black Betty towed to a shop in PV.

    I've been out of the POV market for too long to make any suggestions. Lots of shady dealings in that segment of carhaul, it's filled with folks who haven't a clue what they're doing.

    Even directly contracting with a reputable carrier is no guarantee your car won't be sublet to one of the shady dudes, as @201 pointed out.

    A dodge Dakota is a fairly straight forward engine job maybe look into a shop that will do the work there then drive it back.
     
    Flat Earth Trucker Thanks this.
