Used to see these in the US in the 70's and 80's, hauling 2 more piggyback driving from the factory to the bus builder. I guess the laws changed because now I see 3 on a flatbed.

We were in the market for 3 cars (don’t ask), took one look at the used market and bought 2022's. Looked at the Santa Cruz and one dealer had a 10K “Market Adjustment”, that they would only come off $2500. I walked out the door. After a little work, we paid MSRP on all three. There are dealers out there that are…
Having grown up in Chicago and lived in Charlotte for 30 years this article isn’t news to me. I’m moving to Hickory next month, and yeah, WTF?
Had a 2009, same color. Although it was fun and handled great in the twisties - it was slow. Sold it after 1.5 years and only lost $500. Waaaaaay overpriced. ND.
Great screen name btw
Few years back I was on a flight where they loaded too much fuel - like 1000 lbs worth, which put us way over takeoff weight. Soooo, we sat at the far end of the airport at full throttle burning the excess for what seemed like 20 mins. That was an expensive mistake.
Friend in HS had one of these. Being in Chicago, it was a Flintstone mobile with rust eating the floorboard along with everything else.
At $5,950, Could This 1992 Toyota Corolla All-Trac Pique Your Interest?
My father in law was very successful exporting H2 Hummers over to Germany. It’s a status thing: I’ve got the Euros to get 10 MPG (at best) and I don’t really care.
My “girlfriend’s” dad’s black ‘69 L88 ‘Vette two doors down across the street - although our grade school selfs didn’t really know what it was at the time, it just made glorious noises. By the time we figured it out in the late 70's, he traded for a conversion van. That hurt. It still hurts when I think about it.…
Had a red ‘88. 25K? No. Hell No. No fuckin’ way no.
Is that the Pao I see regularly in the west side of Charlotte? In my 20's I was dating a woman whose dad had a 928S in that same color combo that was used as a shelf for many boxes. We dated for 3 1/2 years and I think he drove it maybe 3x’s. Just before we broke up, he traded it for a NSX. Wonder if he drove that…
The correct answer is to update Road America and have it there.
Year old ‘88 Mustang LX 5.0. First car? ‘80 Pinto. ‘Nuff said.
Virtual Turbo OverLoad
This is just stupid, as well as dangerous. As someone in the business, this make no sense. These trucks just aren’t built to haul that load day in day out. Better option: Class 6+.
Or you could do what ADP did to my company. Someone keyed in the wrong code for a direct deposit - instantly making it a direct withdrawal, so instead of depositing $xxx to my account, they took the same amount out. Asked how that was legal to withdraw funds without my approval, was told that in the DD agreement, if…
Reminds me of the final chase scene in Blues Brothers.
THAT made my day!
Greetings from the Charleston area! Yeah, Stupid knows no bounds.
