About the same time I realized that they were all used cars we were going different directions. Couldn¹t get the name on the door but it did say "coast to coast delivery, SF,LA,Denver, Omaha, DesMoines, Chicago," (and that was all I caught)

Now the interesting part. That truck was pulling out of the commercial auction lot when I first noted it. Then it hit me that when working for a company where we occasionally shipped vehicles it was usually from a local commercial lot to another commercial lot.

Check the local big commercial lots for who handles their auction shipping and if they know of any good ones. Every vehicle we shipped left with ones that had been sold at the auction. They always went to another major sales lot for pickup.
