VIDEO: How NOT to unload your car from a trailer
Funnily enough, these guys aren't the only ones to ever use a box truck to ruinous effect on an automobile. There's a story that comes to mind involving a Ryder truck, a loading dock, and a Porsche 911 carcass, but we walked away from that situation when the stupid clouds started looming on the horizon. These Subaru movers went all the way, using what looks like folding cafeteria tables as a makeshift ramp. Everyone involved received a compound physics lesson when 3,000 pounds of automobile met an unsecured and poorly constructed ramp, overcoming whatever friction was holding that Rube Goldberg assemblage together, and the little Rex topped it off with a refresher course in gravity. Whoops. At least it looks like the car was already banged up. Say it with us now: "that'll buff out." Video embedded after the jump.

That might buff out, but stupid lasts forever.

If they were in the car, why not just drive it out?
Not sure, but that car looks like it may of been damaged before that stunt.
Hard to tell, but it's got no rear bumper, and it doesn't appear to fall off in the video.
The hood also appears to have quite the gap before it falls too.

So... how about the link for the Porsche 911? That would be interesting to see as well.

I was going to post something witty, but I am at a complete loss for words. You can't buy stupid.

Given the confines of the box truck, how was someone in the car? Did they travel in the car for the trip!?
