    Strange, and so close to the main road, rather than up by the house.

    It's on private property?

    I think it's technically a road, but it looks like the guy owns all the property on it.

    Odd that they're both on the wrong side of the road, and parked so close together.

    Perhaps he was towing it with the truck? LOL

    Nah, probably tried to "bump-start" the truck with the Maser. ;-)

    Maser probably died there F1 in gear and he hasn't figured out how to move the car so it sits. He probably can't get it into neutral and has the problem that stranded the car and now in 2 weeks his battery is dead on top of all that.

    Perhaps notify the authorities as "suspicious" after so long and then later see what the police report says.

    Probably parked the truck so close so nobody could show up with a wrecker and steal the broken Maser ;^D

    No one said anything about a manual.

    The F1 from the 599 was used for about 300 examples in 2009 only. While the other cars had paddles, they still used a traditional automatic transmission.

    Gotcha. I don't know a whole lot about those other than the fact that they didn't offer a manual, which pretty much eliminated it as a car I'd like to have. They are pretty cars with a great soundtrack. A little bit bloated in size though

    Well after two weeks, they're both gone. Somebody must have boosted them both in the middle of the night :)
