    it was easy getting the infamous u-haul discount because I called and ordered a flatbed car carrier with a winch I get there they only have a 2 wheel no winch job.

    so I cut the drive shaft in half so we could toe it and we actually pushed it onto the trailer from the top of the driveway. we only had one shot at it. phew!!! Boo Yeah!

    and the insulated wire was from the main wiring harness and the speaker lines and anything we could yank out of the dash

    oh yeah I forgot the battery and those stripped wires they wend down on a separate trip $7.50 for the battery and like $10.00 worth of copper.(copper got added to a big bin of it not sure exactly how much)

    Maybe the key was lost and couldn't get it out of park.

    If that were the case I would have unbolted at the U, instead of cutting it in half.

    Have to say I was a tad bummed. Was expecting full on annihilation/destruction of a vehicle and instead got a video of towing and rolling credits of what was scrapped.
