Any where you want, I think. I would have them ship it to my uncle's house in Littleton or my rental house in Thornton. I guess one could have them ship it to/from Moab as well, but I assume that would cost more. I would also consider having it delivered to anywhere you can fly direct to near Moab. I assume Aspen would be the closest choice, but I don't knwo. |

Moab does have a regional airport FWIW. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>that and I would imagine everything would be cheaper if you were to do it at/through Denver. It's then a short 5 or so hour hop to Moab.
We shipped bikes to the Denver airport and flew in and they ended up dropping them off at our hotel right by the airport.
If you could be without your truck for a few weeks, you could find a logistics company that could try to get you piggybacked onto another load.

Another company that quoted a higher rate said that you get $50 off per vehicle for every additional vehicle. Thus, doing it as a group might be cheaper.

I still think the Shaggy method is cheaper.

No. Shaggy will fly there and drive it to Colorado for you. Not sure what his price is - but likely he'll do it in trade for a polo shirt and a set of Sperry top siders.

I might be interested in this for next year. I had gotten quotes for Salt Lake City. It was something like $1200 each way. I don't think so. 
Several vehicles originating from one place and ending at the same place might be able to save some big $$$. This could work out.

Would that be leather or canvas Top Siders? Is Shaggy able to drive a Hummer or is he only XTerra qualified? J.K.

I am a well rounded wheel-man. Anything with a gas pedal and a steering wheel (brakes are optional).  |
