Why flatbed instead of wheel lift?
Anything all-wheel drive needs flatbed, full stop - wheel lifts leave two wheels on the ground and the spinning driveshaft destroys the transfer case. EVs are the same story - dragging a Tesla or Rivian with drive wheels on the ground fries the motor. Sports cars and lowered cars need a flatbed because wheel lifts lift only one end and the other end scrapes. If you're not sure, call - we'll tell you honestly which is right.
Will my car get damaged during flatbed loading?
Not with us. We use soft-strap wheel nets, never chains or hooks on the frame. Low-profile beds mean approach angles under 10 degrees - most lowered cars clear without scraping. For show cars and exotics, we can add plywood or an extension ramp. The driver walks every vehicle before loading.
