Default wtf?

a complete waste of money. you would think transporting $103 mil worth of cars would require a safe, sturdy ship. Ship was Listing for a monthwith nobody towing it or extracting vehicles for salvage, nothing? Add some air/water to the ballast and straighten her out? If that was my truck out there in that ship I would find a way to get it out.

it did even sink?
wait there are 4,703 cars on one ship, assembled?

I;ve read it several times and still can't believe it

Yes didn't mention the date. Just couldn't believe they would do that. Didn't think about the profit like that.
