Hi I am throwing a question out there..........Has anyone used a car dolly to haul a Spyder? If so what were your experiences?
Thanks

From page 157 of my operator's guide. Towing could void warranty, particularly under Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act.

"NOTICE Do not tow the Spyder
roadster — towing can seriously
damage the vehicle drive system.
When contacting a towing or transporting
service, be sure to ask if they
have a flatbed trailer, loading ramp or
power ramp to safely lift the vehicle
and tie-down straps. Ensure the vehicle
is properly transported as specified
in this section."

:shocked: :agree: Warranty aside; that rear wheel and belt would be slinging right along... without any oil pressure to lubricate anything in the transmission. :yikes:

(Even in neutral; that output shaft will be spinning...)
