I'm in Oklahoma and I've seen cars I like from auctions based in Texas. Does anyone have experience having a car delivered across state lines? I'm trying to understand the process and roughly what it costs. I've seen people mention that a Sales Agent helps arrange transport after the deposit. Is that accurate? And how long does interstate delivery usually take - days or weeks?

Had a car shipped from Texas to Louisiana, about 400 miles. Took about 4 days and the agent coordinated the whole thing. Cost a few hundred dollars on top of the purchase.

Yes, they arrange it. Mine went from Texas to New Mexico and arrived in under a week. The tracking was decent and the car showed up exactly as the report described.

Longer distances can take 1-2 weeks depending on the carrier. Ask for an enclosed trailer if the car is nicer or you're worried about road debris on a long haul.
