    Did ya see the ass in the 2500 behind the Tacoma how fast he was going and how close he came to the back of the Tacoma, causing him to slam his brakes and wipe out? Just like twfsa said, Mr. Tacoma was excercising sound skills while Mr. Chevy was not.

    It really is embarassing how poorly they take care of the roads here, why can't we ever get on the news for good things. :anonymous:

    looks like he had studded tires, the way he maneuvered so easily while the others slid around helplessly. Even if he did, just proves taco drivers are well prepared.

    Thats the worst feeling. When you are sliding, knowing you are going to smash and cant do anything about it.
