Need help on shipping body kit

I'm trying to ship my body kit to another orger. I got a quote for UPS of $159 and Fed Ex for $60. This is both for pickup. It's kinda to big for me to drop it off. Here are the dimensions of the box : 76inches long, 21 inches high, 11 inches width. Shipping from Mass to PA. Any suggestions? Should I just stick to $60 shipping. Throw it in the trunk?

$60.00 is a damn good price.

I'm wondering how companies are able to ship stuff for so cheap?

tirerack for one can ship some wheels and tires via UPS for a lot cheaper...

a set of 18s with tires is only about 50-70$ to ship...

if you attempt to ship them yourself, it'd cost you a good 120$+

I'm guessing it has something to do with it being a business...

it's always like this but it's such a drastic difference..
