Saw this at lunch time. VW bug, driving on a donut, pulling a trailer full of drywall..
(through holiday shopping traffic near the mall)

I hope its not that Chinese drywall.
That stuff is NASTY!
Wow, that's one heck of a doughnut, with the way that VW is sagging I'm surprised it didn't pop like a balloon.
Maybe it is a regular tire and he just lost the hubcap...
Anyway, he didn't look like a happy camper

How long you think the engine will last pulling them kinda loads?
I didn't know you could put a trailer hitch on a bug.
LOL... Did anybody ever play "Beaver Cleaver" riding down the highway?

I could have a field day at WalMart!
I'm pretty sure he's over the GCVWR of that bug...
Good thing it is as flat as a pancake around here. He'd never get up a hill.
Unreal
Hey Squirt I swear I saw that same bug, without the spare, pulling the same trailer loaded about 5 ft high and tarped on Hwy 55 between Springfield and Bloomington a few months ago....I so wished I had a camera with me, I was shocked. I wonder if its the same one?
SIA

I bet it is. I don't think it was a spare, when I looked at the hires version of the pic, he was just missing the hubcap...
He's nuts for driving it around Springfield loaded down like that - but on I-55??? He's cruising for a ticket. (if not a terrible wreck)
I never have seen a VW with enough CHONES to pull anything :D
Here (http://lh5.ggpht.com/_CbvAIVzmFFM/SxlWSby--dI/AAAAAAABBEU/oQ7mAuE2OYM/photo.jpeg) is a little bigger version of the pic. Looks like the back bumper has gotten some love, and check out the trailer hitch. Scary.
Maybe that's not drywall... Looks like a ton of cr@p, nevertheless.
You guys must not live near I-10, this is an everyday occurrence heading west. One car pulling another, pulling another. One even had a sign that said "In Toe"
looks like a portable meth lab
Portable Meth lab ;D Here in Missouri our state bird is the bluebird and our state car is a portable meth lab :o
