Yes its a non manly car,he is ignorant and very stupid,not mentioning the laws this dolt is breaking..Guess you never drove a Dodge truck then did you ?especially a 2 wheel drive model they stick around corners with very little lean,or ever drive an srt-10 it will run the doors off a miata,any day 0-60 or for you 0-96 km/h 4.5 sec...you would be surprised how good they handle,plus when I drive 90 km/hr and this and other dolts like this in tiny retarded cars that are full of crap cut me off and I T- bone them, I will be going home ..and they are in a body bag going 6 feet under..looks like this guy wont be around in 5 years with the idiotic acts he is pulling off...
iI have a Miata and I pull stuff like this when ever I have to. Packing for college was like playing tetris, but I always won.

and yes I moved my appartment using the same gen miata as in this pic, and yes it was in San Francisco... but no, didn't move couch on it, I had a friends truck for big stuff.
So this guy's to cheap to rent a U-Haul? Or even too proud to borrow a pickup from a friend? I know someone in San Francisco has a pickup.

I owned a VW Cabriolet. You wouldn't believe the stuff I could get into that car. I have a great picture of an X-mas tree from a few years ago. Mountain bikes, weedwackers, table sets, seven people, all my swap meet goods, and a host of other crap that would have never fit in a Rabbit or any other economy 3 door. Although, I don't know if I could have put that couch in there because of the roll bar, but I might have been able to put it over the back seat and folded top. I miss my old VW.
But I think this guy should have just put the couch on the car crossways like it was a hard top.
Let's see... What all has our 99 NB Miata carried...
My wife has put a dwarf cherry tree, pot and all in the passenger seat, sticking about 4-feet above the winsheild.
And she loaded the trunk full of brick pavers for two or three trips back from the local landscaping supply...
I think we have had rolled rugs, and several other things in the passenger seat. Never a couch hanging over the trunk lid, though.
I think someday I may have to find her a used, CHEAP Subaru Turbo Baja someday... and let the poor sports car rest, and do what it is designed to do, which is to be fun, not utilitarian.
It hasn't been all that pretty since selling the 4x4 Ranger, and buying the turbo Legacy to drive every day, and travel with. I don't regret that move for an instant, although the Miata hasn't entirely enjoyed it on days that I have the Legacy, and the wife gets an itch to improve the garden.
