Shipping Wars on A&E – Recap of Episode “Baja or Bust”
Episode 9 is jam packed full of interesting events for the transporters. Marc finds himself heading to Mexico to pick up a $100,000 award winning Baja Truck. There are strict time constraints for this load and it is important that Marc stays on schedule. He must protect this prized possession while on its way to the track for a famous race, but then runs into some problems with directions. The back roads of Tijuana aren’t as kind to Marc as he had hoped for, forcing him to get resourceful or possibly putting him out of business. He incurs many debts along the way, such as customs papers, etc. This then takes away from the big profit that he was so desperately counting on. On another note, Scott and Susie take their boat hauling knowledge to the next level when having to transport a wooden pirate ship across the US. What would transport be without problems, right? They continued to have problems keeping the boat tied down to the trailer. With the many years of problem solving, Scott and Susie find a way to keep that old ship anchored down.

Shipping Wars on A&E – Recap of Episode “Tavern on the Greenbacks”
Well, here we are again with another recap of the latest episode of Shipping Wars. Roy wins a job to transport a catering food truck from NYC‘s famous restaurant, Tavern on the Green. The vehicle was supposed to be able to start and just drive right up onto the trailer, but Roy finds that not to be the case. The vehicle is now considered inoperable and he has to find another way to make it work. Being the handy man that Roy is, he takes it upon himself to rig up a winch to the trailer and pull it on. Well, this wasn’t all that was needed for the oversized food truck. After many hours of stress, Roy later finds that the buyer isn’t willing to pay for the extra work and materials that were needed to get the job done. To make matters even worse, once the vehicle was loaded onto the trailer, Roy’s trailer breaks and he then has to purchase a larger, more expensive trailer to complete the task. Jarrett on the other hand, wins the bid to move a 400-lb wooden African statue that should earn him some easy cash. This wasn’t the case anymore once his van breaks down again. He is then forced to find more loads along the way in order to break even, but soon finds himself having to purchase a new truck that won’t delay him in the future. All of these problems that have occurred in this episode could have been easily avoided with better communication between the two parties. N-Motion Auto Transport takes the extra time to figure out all of the logistics that are important in shipping a vehicle. It will end up costing everyone more money in the long run if things aren’t worked out before the car carrier even shows up. Here at N-Motion, with our extensive network of carefully chosen car haulers, we make sure to use the right rigs for the job. Our highly trained professionals go the extra mile to make sure that all carriers, that we use, have up to date equipment and carry the necessary cargo insurance to fully cover the entire value of each and every vehicle on the trailer.

New Addition to the Mercedes-Benz Family
Mercedes has launched a new SL roadster and it has gone though a total makeover. New materials have been used in order to make the body more powerful. Other elements of the vehicle are executed from plastic, such as the boot lid. Mercedes is offering a couple of engine types; a supercharged V8 with about 435HP and 700NM torque (the SL500 version) and a 3.5-liter atmospheric V6 with 306HP and 370NM torque (the SL350 version.) Each car offers very fuel-friendly systems and 7-step automatic transmissions. The max speed is identical on both versions – 250km/h. The list of technologies includes 3 variants of a sunroof that consumers can choose from – painted, glass or panoramic with blackout. To add to the extensive list are low-frequency speakers at the passengers’ feet, crash preparation, adaptive head lights, and multimedia command system. First glimpse of the ride was at a Detroit showroom on January 9th. With all of the many new automobiles that are to come out on the market within such a short span of time, Mercedes sure does know how to compete and conquer. Why not let N-Motion Auto Transport move your new vehicle from point A to point B. Only dependable auto shippers should have the honor of transporting these kings of the road.

Shipping Wars on A&E – Recap of Episode “Pain in the Caboose”
On the previous episode of Shipping Wars, that aired January 24, 2012, Marc lands the 1928 train caboose in order to haul. He has no idea what he is really getting into, but decided to steal the job away from Scott and Susie. There are many variables that go along with this shipment, some that could make or break the bank. Marc states that “if the shippers check doesn’t clear, we are going to have a bonfire with this caboose.” Whether joking or not, this is one of the issues that goes along with how things are done on USHIP and why it is better to go with a auto transport broker who can handle all of the logistics. Not only is the car transport broker able to get things done in a timelier manner, due to the larger network of trucks on the road, but the broker is also in control of payment to the driver. So, in such a case as the caboose, the job would have not even begun unless the check cleared. There would be no mix up in payment and everyone is happy in the end. Brokers are only in business because of hard working carriers that get the job done right. Good brokers, like N-Motion Auto Transport, handle things properly the first time so that there are no mix-ups in the end.
Roy wins the privilege to move a 1955 Thunderbird from FL to NY. The bid started at $2500.00 and the final bid closed at $1500.00. This is only 1100 miles and would only have cost a customer $1095.00, if they had used a car shipping company like N-Motion Auto Transport. The customer could then just sit back and relax while they waited for their vehicle to arrive, while not having to be calling the car carrier every so often to find out the location of their vehicle.

Ford Mustang Boss 302 takes down Ferrari, Audi, BMW, and Porsche
Watch out all you foreign car lovers, Ford is back in the ring and ready to fight. Performance tests were ran at Hockenheim on several cars to compare the strengths and weaknesses of each ride. Well, turns out that the Boss 302 Laguna Seca has a little more to offer in speed than the Aston Martin DBS, the Audi R8, BMW M3, and the Ferrari California. To add to these accolades, the Boss also beat out the Porsche 991 in braking performance. How bout them apples? The Mustang is loaded with a potent 302 cubic-inch 5.0-liter V8 and holds about 444hp. Although this beast shredded apart the previously mentioned exotics, it failed to outdo the BMW M5 F10. It’s ok Ford, there is still much to be proud of, including the economic price tag of $48,000. This price surely warrants some applause, considering that it is less than half the price of most others on the list. N-Motion Auto Transport takes pride our car shipping of such vehicles to and from the track. Even on a daily basis, we ship cars for the average Joe as if he were part of our family. Being that a car is considered to be one of the largest purchases in a person’s life, we make sure to be the most dependable auto shippers in the industry.
