Should have bought a gooseneck. I do 85 mph everywhere and have no issues with wind.

Looks better than my car even after the rollover.
If you read the CR.net thread (I did at work, obv.) - the issue is clear. A woman was driving. |
Hope he had towing coverage.

he probably didn't, just like most people who claim to have "full coverage" have some bullshit policy that they've never actually read. It's easier to tell everyone you have "full coverage" and be completely ignorant of UM and all the other must haves.

Wow - chances of me getting a tow rig now: decreased. Look how close the trailer came to landing on the cab!

That really sucks, poor car.

um, have you ever towed anything with a gooseneck?
**EDIT** Just educated myself on gooseneck hitches. Looks like a good investment. http://auto.howstuffworks.com/auto-p...ck-hitches.htm |

Looks like
1) No weight distributing hitch - FAIL 2) No sway control - FAIL 3) MOST of the damage to the Miata could have been avoided if it had been STRAPPED DOWN - HOLY FAIL |
Clearly the person who bought the car is a complete fucking tool. The car is probably better off this way rather than being owned by him.
