Man, that's got to make for a bad day. I know when I sold my KR, the new owner brought a U-Haul. We had to take the engine off and really do some fancy footwork to get it in the truck. To be able to get two KR's in a U-Haul should tell just how much they were destroyed. Has anyone seen anything on NTSB, seems like these two would have to be reported? I'm sure there will be some Monday morning second guessing but if the thread gets started I would encourage those respondants to offer advice on avoiding/responding to unexpected weather conditions and not finger pointing on "what those two did wrong".
