What did they do to the track loader?
That sucks anyway, a 1.3ton car falling from more than 2.5 metres really makes some damage, let alone the scrape at the bottom that must have destroyed it

See now I see it the exact opposite way. If you dropped a tupperware bowl off a countertop and a porcelain bowl off the same countertop and the porcelain bowl completely shattered doesnt mean it was lower quality, just more delicate...

"We sold the vehicle to a guy in Florida," Boch wrote in an e-mail today. "As they were loading on the truck to deliver it to Florida, it fell off. Their guy didn't secure the emergency brake hard enough....it was totaled!!"

HA totalled in some people's mind, I'd still proudly drive it even with a F***ed up rear end
