lol it was worse than that. She wanted to use a Honda crx! all she needed to do was watch the second episode of roadkill to know why it was a bad idea. They tried to flat tow a 55 chevy behind a 60's ranchero! Lol
I am guilty of some dumb towing. My buddy had one of those U-Haul tow bars that hooked to the front bumper and frame with hooks and chains. I helped a buddy move from south fl to bithlo fl flat towing a 56 crown vic with a 73 ranchero. We made it but just by the grace of God and the state trooper that let us go for no lights if we tape a flashlight to the trunk lid. I surprised people weren't killed towing with those tow bars. Very hard on front bumpers too. It is amazing we survived our youth lol.
