I'm going to write about the event of bringing home my first car.

I drove up to midland to get my


first car and I was towing it home with a car dolly so only the 2 front wheels were up on the
trailer. She was strapped on there pretty good but not good enough. We were only 20 minutes
away from home and then we blew a tire. It was in the middle of a snow storm at 11pm so we
couldn't get a new tire so we kept moving. Well the wheel bearing on the trailer didn't like that.
We kept driving, taking it low and slow and then all the sudden the wheel bearing on the trailer
gave out. The whole rim and tire fell off the trailer and next thing I know my car was driving
beside me. It then went off about a 4 foot cliff into someone's front yard and landed 2 feet away
from a tree. I was pretty lucky and was able to drive it right out of the ditch. The jetta is a straight
unit and is still a ripper to this day. I've had some minor issues with the car but none related to
the crash. We ended up towing it home and put the trailer in the back of the truck. I went and
bought another car for parts and we learned our lesson and ended up renting a flatbed trailer to
bring the second one home. We didn't want another incident like that. The trailer is also still
broken to this day as i haven't had a chance to fix it.
