Dear Customers,

As you are no doubt aware, fuel prices have spiraled upward over the past several months to their highest level in history. Able Auto Transport, Inc. has acted in good faith to resist seeking price relief as long as we possibly could. Due to the critical nature of the current situation, we can no longer ask our transporters to continue to absorb the increased cost.

Therefore, effective April 20, 2004 we must implement a temporary fuel surcharge on all shipments. The fuel surcharge is automatically figured into the quotes we send out so you do not have to worry about paying more than the amount that appears on your quote.

Our pricing is based on the U.S. National Average Diesel Fuel Index. We will review this data and average costs on a weekly basis. The figure used to determine these costs is also region specific, established by the average cost of the fuel per gallon, the date and the load's origination point. When fuel costs go down, the surcharge will follow appropriately.

We would like to thank you all for your understanding concerning these increased fuel costs and hope that by working through these times together, we can keep your cars moving smoothly.

Respectfully,

Able Auto Transport, Inc.
