At $250 with the shifter, that things a steal. But I'd be willing to bet that it would run a heck of a lot more than $140 to have it shipped.
When I bought mine, which was before the economy totally went in the toilet, I bought it from a guy who was only in the next state over around San Antonio Tx and it cost me around $150 back then to get it here and that was via Forward air which is a bunch cheaper than anyone else and there wasn't any driveshafts with mine, just mounts and shifter. Truck freight isn't cheap. Heck, I spent near $500 just to get a commercial welder here from Florida last year. By the time you add in the fuel surcharges a dang pickup fee is $100-150 these days if theres no loading dock

really ....... that would be $50 in fuel just to go get it and then roughly 1100 miles to houston... and 1100 miles home... that roughly $750 in fuel.......

you would be looking at $2000 all told .... still not bad ....

I've got someone supposed to pick it up either tomorrow or sunday. I need an extra gear to try and get some mileage out of my flatbed.
