Why are the rear wheels not turning?
Won't that do more damage to the tranny?

IF the e-brake isn't on, and providing the locking force, then yes, it is putting strain on the diff and the transmission, possibly trying to spin the rotors backwards as well. I don't see any wheel turn at all though, so likely the e-brake is on. It still isn't good, and is part of the reason the tow truck operator is getting hate mail on here, but at least it isn't directly damaging.

^ It could also mean, if it is a M/T it may be in gear or if it is an auto it is in park. Either/or, pulling the car like that could do serious damage. I believe (I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong), that if it were a M/T in gear, the possibility of damage to the transmission would be more likely than if it were an auto in park.

Imagine the 8 was dropped that low, be pretty sick

But seriously wtf, You arent supposed to JUGGLE any car!! Dumbasses.

If I was the person with the rx8, I would literally beat the **** out of the guy who had the truck. And then poor gasoline on his feet and burn them.
Dumbasses.

So no word yet if it is anyone on here. No clear corners. Clear corners usually for sure means a member.

My poor trillion-mile commuter car got flatbed towed today to the mechanic and the tow truck driver made sure my car was in neutral and made sure my car was well taken care of. These drivers are douches.
