Anyone know what is the best method to ship a 2x15 cab? Who is the best carrier for something like this?

FedEx Ground is usually cheaper when shipping larger items. However, with fuel prices what they are I doubt any shipping by truck will be inexpensive at the moment.

Are you just looking for the cheapest price, or the safest way to ship ? In my experience, anything over 70 lbs is a crapshoot wiith either UPS or Fedex.
