Default Not a Good Day for Some Automaker??????

I was checking this story out, when all of a sudden I realized that I saw this Vessel last summer. My command was doing an Exercise at the Port of Agami, and this big "MF" was parked on the other side of the pier, dowloading some expensive ass cars.. I remember taking a peek inside and noticing how tight the cars and SUV's were parked together. If this shit is laying over at an 80 degree angle, you can probably bet that some or all of those cars are all over the place..

I know half of you kat's probably don't care, but I just thought I'd share this, ya know, since it's car related...

There were some pictures a few years back of a Cargo ship carrying cars that sank and the subsequent damage done to the cars inside. It was pretty nuts.
