What's a good company to use to ship my truck across country?

I called and spoke with National Auto Transport who quoted me $1375 all including taxes and surcharges and full coverage primary insurance.

Bill, vehicle transport is a VERY competitive business. A while back I shipped a car from Texas to L.A. and put up the need for a car transport on a site (forgot the site since it's been so long) and I started getting lots of emails and phone calls and the closer it got to the day I needed the transport done the cheaper it got and all the companies were out-bidding themselves. Was pretty fun to watch. Ended up paying $350 to get the vehicle shipped out to me from what was originally a $1100 estimate.
Just FYI

That's not a bad Price. Especially with the cost of fuel. Depending on where it's shipped too? Make sure you get an ETA. Sometimes the Trucking company's quote cheaper rates based on Parcel or Less then truck load shipments. Good Luck with the sale!!!
