I am just curious, Phoenix and I have been talking and I was just wondering the gross weight of a 94. I know damn well my pick up truck can tow it. I love that is a straight six, and can tow 6500 pounds. I know an FD is not that heavy, but I was just wondering.

Indeed. Don't forget the 100lb (Are they that heavy?) Roll cage I have in there. Plus my tennis shews...

Bollox on that Elise, I've never heard of it and it'd never weigh that.

I should've asked this in the first post. I have access to a two wheel dolly. Should a car this heavy be towed with a open trailer, or would two wheel dolly work fine? I would think an actual trailer would be better for something of this situation, since it will be driven 5 hours on the rear wheels.



Other words, what are you all's opinions on a trailer to use? If you have not noticed, I may be buying an FD in July.

The FSM displays the proper way to tow the car. I'd advise you to look at that
