    Morning, faces. Almost got creamed by a semi coming off the interstate today. He came down the offramp and blew a red light. If I hadn't been paying attention I'd have been in the middle of the intersection (on my green light!) when he went through and gotten t-boned.

    Stood on the horn and he may have gotten the Jersey Pike Wave

    Wow

    I see cars/trucks like that in here all the time. 1K and the car is totaled. It can happen anytime. Not only older cars but brand new ones too

    Yep.
    That would be my luck, too, lol.

    That brand new Rock Warrior Tundra that I saw destroy itself on a stone wall in a snow storm a couple of years ago sprang to mind as I was watching this guy roll past. That thing still had the temp plates on it too, if I remember correctly.

    Morning all. These goodies arrived yesterday. So beefy. Rockmen rear lower links and RCI link mount skids.

    Not surprising. I think the Charger and Challenger Hellcats have both had wrecks shortly after leaving the dealership.
    You've got 700+ horsepower. What are you going to do? Use it!
    Whoops, that's a lot of horsepower...Sorry, telephone pole/tree/building/fellow motorist...

    I didn't know that brake controllers used batteries? I thought part of wiring it to your truck was to power the unit as well.

    Opps sorry my bad. I'm by myself this week which normally would be fine but they change stuff around at my work (without any notice of course) and now I have to run around and do 4 extra steps (that I was never trained on) just to sell something off the self. Worst part is none of the stuff is working correctly.

    Thank God you didn't have to test that 5 star crash rating. That'll wake you up in the morning...
