my speaker system on my PC just **** the bed last week...

but just from the video alone, im going to assume the following:

1. hes never driven a mustang...
2. the NEW owner went out to replace the clutch shortly after arrival of the vehicle...
3. hes never driven a mustang...
4. he doesnt BELONG in a mustang, u can tell he had a problem fitting LOL
5. he doesnt get many tips for his job by loading the vehicles on safely...
6. Tom(69Clark) will NEVER use this company...
and finally...
7. hes never driven a mustang...

please, correct me if i am wrong LOL.. btw since i couldnt hear, did he bottom out the front end at all?

i didn't know you sold it ... what's up with that?

sage2k · Sep 13, 2007

that was painful to watch, you couldnt load it for him?

i sent my mustang on a trailer from cali to mass after getting out of the service ..

it came home with a busted taillight,headlight,and a missing speaker box,with amp

csgoody - Did you get anything for the trouble?

That video was 'painful' to watch...

The chrome exhaust pipes were nice...

Until, they drug on the ground.

I could see a couple issues, since he needed to slow so he didn't drag, but having to crank the car 20x, gee whiz

ouch!

Trailer ramps FTL!

reddy351 · Sep 13, 2007

1) He was prolly a little uncomfortable loading the car because you were videotaping it. Prolly never been videotaped, loading a car. If he did something wrong, there was no way he could deny he did it. Plus, if it looked like he was being "careful" and something bad happened, at least he was trying. You're right. He should be doing something else.

2) That company should set their rigs up with electric winches. Much easier!

3) I'll bet he's never driven a Mustang. (That sounds strangely familiar.)

Venom351R · Sep 13, 2007

I don't think there was anyway to prevent the pipes from scraping b/c of the angle. He was trying to be careful, took him forever just to try to get the car up the ramps. I wouldn't totally put it on him.

94-302-vert · Sep 13, 2007

How many hours did it take him to tie it down?

inphiniti · Sep 13, 2007

LOL...

yeah ill say that, he did do a good job of trying to be careful... teh whole time he was in the car, he was probably cursin you for videotapin LOL

Nik_95Cobra · Sep 13, 2007

I thought the same thing as reddy351 mentioned. He's probably camera shy and got stage fright. I've seen much worse though unfortunately.

other than gettin my car back no

69clark · Sep 13, 2007

LOL, yeah, I'm not hiring anyone to ship my car if I can help it.

xr8d302 · Sep 13, 2007

haha

ouch!

I once had to have my car driven away by a service guy...

came back with a cracked H-pipe....after I'd already told him to watch the ride height, he smacked a speedbump

I trust only one guy in town to tow my car, since he's got a gorgeous mustang himself, and knows how to make sure nothing gets damaged.

Yup, had to sell it. Sometimes financial problems get the best of us and we gotta do what we gotta do! It's ok, I've got my eye on another one here, shouldn't be too long before I'm back in the saddle..

I didn't choose that company, the guy who bought my car sent them to get it. And damn right I was videotaping it! I know how this stuff works, I watch all the "Judge" shows.. no pics, no video, no case. Plus, I wanted to get the video for the buyer so he could visually see the car being loaded.. When alot of money changes hands, people tend to get uneasy, wondering if the deal is legit or not... this was to ease his mind a little quicker.

Bosko5.0 · Sep 14, 2007

sorry you had to sell the car. that was funny.

94-302-vert · Sep 14, 2007

Great reasons to tape it...

Car Nut · Sep 14, 2007

Phenomenal! I'd be in tears or just stopping that whole process after the first minute or two.

I've had to be towed twice, but by AAA and fortunately they brought out the right flatbed truck that can handle lowered cars/sports cars. It was extra nice to see the winch in action, rather than someone else driving my car.

MI95Cobra · Sep 14, 2007

i had mine towed once when my fuel pump went out....but it was also a flat bed.....the guy was real careful with it...i made sure....lol
