Sinking Spider
This may label me as a mega idiot, but while fueling my Spider the other day, I was leaning against the car and noticed that the car was sinking beneath me as I was fueling.
Now I can understand why this would happen (the tank was pretty empty), but 10 gallons of unleaded only weighs 61 pounds or so. I have never noticed this on any other car--I'm a pretty lazy guy, and I lean against just about every car I gas up.
Is this weak springs? Or just weak powers of observation & intellect?
