That is how you get to the hospital when you have the wrong health insurance. Tow truck - $100 - ambulence several thousand dollars.

I hope that one is a joke. (I doubt the feet would be bare on a real gurney transport).

Reminds me of a fairly common thing we saw in India that makes you look twice:
Under the front bumper of a taxi, little girl 'mary jane' shoes. Tied on looking like the kid got run over and dragged.

Weird humor!

I for one think it’s fitting. A person lives their whole life pinching pennies why stop when they’re dead. Taking the cheapest ride makes sense.

As long as the patient is properly secured should be all set !

That Subaru's transmission won't be happy getting towed like that. Unless the driveshaft is out, you're supposed to have all 4 wheels on a trailer/dolly.

It's on a car hauler trailer..... no wheels turning. Permanent AWD on Subarus would not work at all with a half-tow, like you say.

Towing with front wheels elevated might work for short distances - within a storage yard etc. My '99 Outback (A/T) has a fuse that can be pulled to disable the clutch pack engagement that normally occurs when the ABS system senses a difference in wheel rotation speed. Dunno if later models are wired this way. I assume with the key off, no power would go to the solenoid that sends hydraulic fluid to that clutch pack. Anybody know?

Whatever, not engaging that front-to-rear clutch pack isn't a solution for road towing!

I saw a chevy 1500 being pulled down the highway at 75 mph once with the front end up, but rear wheels down and turning. The tranny and rear diff were billowing smoke..... poor dummy had no clue.

There's a service now that my in-laws are interested in doing when they pass. Have them cremated. Ship the ashes to this company. They mix the ashes with potting soil and fertilizer. Add to a pot with the tree you want. Then ship back to the family to be planted.

I told my father in law to just spell it out and specify which tree. We don't need to ship him off to someone else to have that done, when we could do that ourselves.

Wonder who and how, they maintain the chain of custody.

not sure how they rear diff is explained in that situation being that the ring gear throws the rear end fluid up and into the reservoir of the front pinion bearings. The outer wheel bearings would still be fed from the round tube that is hit with fluid also being flushed into them from the reindeer doing its thing. There's really no good reason that the rear diff would be bad unless the front end were jacked up so high that you filled the cover with grease and even then the ring gear would still be throwing it.
