    If you did, you might not be "joking" about it, maybe?

    Says the guy who skipped right on past 2nd gens and bought a truck he jokes about more than he drives :D
    Just kidding, just kidding, all in good heart.



    I'm glad everyone survived that. At first I thought it was transporting milk but then I read the placard.... They are EXTREMELY LUCKY it didn't light up :bananadead:
    Looks like it leaked a little or they had another truck come in and pump the fuel out in the center.

    - I agree. A couple footnotes, however, as was previously mentioned no one died so no one is dancing on their grave.

    - and, we are talking about this on a car forum, where some of the most tasteless, arrogant, and heartless folks dwell. This is basically shit slinging central, so would you expect any less even on a topic like this one?

    Expect? No Hope? Yes

    Pretty unfortunate thing. Just not my thing to poke at it.

    Nobody's offended. Just seemed a bit tactless to poke fun at someone else's misfortune. That's all.

    Couple of you guys are trying to turn this into something that it's not. No one is looking for a safe place or being a snowflake about this....and certainly not offended. Just clearly a varying set of values at work here.

    Carry on

    I don't joke too much about the 3rd gen, love the truck and drive the hell out of it. In fact it has over 20k on the odometer without any issue.

    It's the paranoid 3rd gen owners I joke about. :D

    Now if you want to talk about the "deuce" Toyota dropped on you guys after the glorious 1st gens........ :crapstorm:


    I kid, I kid!!!!!!! All in good fun here.

    Most likely fuel from the tractors own fuel tank, and not his cargo.
