    Does anyone have experience in towing a '04 360 spider?
    Uhaul has a tow dolly and their computer says it will accomodate this vehicle but only by placing the rear wheels onto the dolly and towing it backwards because it is a rear wheel drive.
    I want to find someone that has done it and that can tell me their experience.
    Thanks!

    I wouldn't do it...you are loading the front wheel bearings, and in reverse rotation.

    I always load onto a Landoll roll back wrecker even for short trips.

    How far do you need to move it??

    It is much better to transport your exotic on an open trailer compared to this contraption. You are just looking for trouble on a dolly.

    About 2500 miles....
    I'll have to look into your suggestion. Where can I find that?

    UHaul also has an open car trailer. I rented one a couple of weeks ago for $60 a day. Well worth the investment.

    The last time I needed to move a Ferrari that distance I packed a bag and drove it (flying one way).

    It was a fun time.
