Good thing it was a convertible other wise the door save would have turned into a fender bender :shocked:

My mother would call me to come over because she couldn't close the back door on her Audi. I would than say, "Did you try to back out of the garage with the door left open again"? She said, How did you know? Wild guess! :roflblack:

THAT's why I ride a Spyder; no doors to hang up on stuff! :D :thumbup:

Here's the response the mechanic gave:
"I had just jump started it and knew if I shut it off, it would not restart. it is an automatic. I did put it in park but the shifter bushings were bad (had replaced) I was putting it in the shop but someone put a drip pan in the way so I got out to move the pan. the rest is on the video Fat Jack can run when his job is on the line."

I bought a house about a year after moving here from CT, that had a garage but no way to use it because of an inlaw apartment behind it and turned into a family room with an addition added to that. I keep the Spyder in a 7'x14' enclosed trailer and the truck sits outside next to the trailer. :thumbup:
