DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

That one and the one with the Fedex truck...

 

Those videos of the wreck are horrible...... I was 1 of 4 people that showed up to work. Them went home at 10:30. Probably won't be going in next Monday

 

It's on the back of a car hauler

 

Yeah I figured that out, but it locked up my brain for a second.

 

Man, watching those semis slide into the other vehicles at full speed is horrific! Explains the deaths and damage, and why cars were tossed around and stacked on each other!

I had to drive to work this morning, but it wasn’t too bad out at 0200, and there wasn’t much traffic either. Kinda glad I had to go in when I did!

 

Anyone have a spare 16" wheel?

 

pretty sure i do, steelie with a decent tire on it

 

Don't even need the tire since I have one. Let me know what you want for it and I'll hit you up next time I head to DFW. I just need something for the swingout until SCS decides to restock.

 

If he doesnt have it I have a set (4x) of 5 spoke steel wheels.

 

Make sure you check out the blem thread if you aren’t super concerned about barely noticeable defects in the powder

 

i need to go out and make sure its a 16 after the freeze is over, but @Nopro gave it to me and i dont need it so ill pass it on if you can use it and make this way

 

It’s a 16

 

I have been, but 16x8 matte black stealth 6 are out. The blems wont be restocked until a new shipment comes in and they are sorted.

 

Yeah I saw the videos the people on the other side of the highway posted. So fucked up. A few trucks much bigger than a taco were literally thrown on top of other crashed semis. It almost seemed like trucks were accelerating. I wonder... how visible were the warnings for ice? Sad stuff. I'm sure many people will be hurt for many years to come on top of the fact that 5 or more people died

 

They pre treated the roads but those bridges can get bad really fast. I used to have to work ice duty shifts when I worked for txdot. It gets sketchy real fast

 

just noticed the SAE in your profile. Phi Alpha brahhhhhh. OkState Mu for 2 years

 

yeah man they were flying tho. People definitely underestimated it. The trucks were going so fast. Have you seen the video I'm talking about? It's 2 people near same spot

 

tough to watch for sure... wild

 

Those are privately owned and maintained roads by Texpress and there are going to be some lawyers and families that own a good chunk of it soon.

 

On a lighter note--- I did this last night. Gotta love Chinese toys
