As for the trucking company coverage, I talked to the rep in trucking company and it is only covering truck driver's fault. He said for example a chain dropped on the car and damaged...other then that, storm, hail, rock chip, etc will be on your own coverage.

Yeah when I was calling around to shipping companies one of them broke down the insurance pretty well, they cover any issues resulting from the transportation (i.e. loading, offloading, truck issues), but your insurance would cover "acts of god" such as hail and other things that would be normal for your insurance to cover when it is parked somewhere.
One other important thing to ask the shipper about is how they handle claims of damage, i.e. is it through them or the trucker...
For me it seemed that the company the dealer had worked well with in the past actually was pretty good on all my questions, but I ended up not having to buy/ship when a BRZ became available locally.
I was able to get my $500 deposit back pretty easy within a few days.
