Title: Best way and best price?
Post by: GSXRBOBBY on January 19, 2004, 06:02:57 pm
Looking to ship an engine to Porta Rico and UPS will only ship up to 150lbs. Any body shipped an engine before and how much was it?

I shipped an Engine for the East Coast to Ontario.  It cost me $140+tax only.  I used a Major shipping company.  I think it was.. Cabana  Or something like that

We ship via Day & Ross.  It's $38 for 1000 km if the package is under 300 lb $50 if it over that.  The engien must be crated, or at least movable by forklift.

Where is Porta Rico?

Now that is a tough question to answer.  Prefixing a name with "Porta" usually means that it's portable.  Take porta-potties for example...

So Porta Rico could be just about anywhere, and where it'll wind up next is known only to the person(s) doing the porta-ing.

...and that, Your Honour, was when I ran like hell and hid until the bullets stopped flying.

So that means that Rico could also be short for something…like Ricardo.  That would mean that Porta Rico is some sort of portable guy.  Maybe a little guy or midget, that can’t move far on his own so he has to be portable for others to move him.

So there you have it.  Porta Rico is a midget that’s too small to move himself.  Where is he?  Hard to say…call his cell.
