Interesting - I'm in the process of buying the Blue one that Crain Ford had. I may also do the same thing as coordinating reasonable shipping from just NE of Little Rock is a little painful. It'll be a heck of a 3 day drive though...
Question - when you say the rig wasn't wide enough - I assume you were trying to get covered transport?
FYI got back home after a LONG extended road trip, but would do it again (no further than Arkansas tho lol) I worke w/ Flint; he even dropped the truck off to the hotel after I landed (had to get the family settled 1st).
I decided to bite the bullet on the front end and do 8hr days(made 10hr w/ some exploring
) fri/sat. Made for a short drive in from Phoenix today!
I had a Gen 2 and a Gen 1 shipped enclosed from Texas with no problems on the width. It's was close, but nothing not sweat about. Next time let me know, I'll provide their info.
I was only looking for non-covered. Went for days w/ no reply, and when one driver came through, he backed out when he found out it was a Raptor! I'm sure if there wasn't a pandemic, there wouldn't be an issue.
I shipped my bike out when I 1st got stationed here w/ no issues.
