    oh boy......................

    No ones "needs" UCA's unless you lift past 2" 99.9% of the time. I don't even "need" them for my truck. They actually make aligning my truck harder because I'm not lifted 3" and they are made for a lifted truck.....

    Yea I'm just waiting for the day that Eddie posts "help!! I'm stuck at a toll plaza on the New York thru way and my clutch isn't working!! I can't get it into gear, I don't understand.. How could this happen,, clutch should last longer than this,, I called corporate Toyota to tell them what happened and its all their fault for using a clutch that needs to be replaced "


    Or when he gets stuck in a snow bank and can't get out because he doesn't have a front recovery point..

    so i was involved in a deadly motorcycle accident monday night. I was the first to get hit, the guy riding behind me had no where to go and t-boned the car. He was pronounced dead at the hospital but im pretty sure he was already passed before they got him in the ambulance. The 85 year old driver was traveling the wrong way on the opposite side of the road head on into oncoming traffic and banged a right turn right into 5 of us bikes. He clipped my bike right behind my leg where the passenger seat is/where the sissy bar attaches and kicked the whole back end of the bike out luckily i had some angels holding the bike up and they put me back straight on the road, the guy to my left who barley got around saw me get hit and thought i was going down hard. My buddy behind me had no where to go and hit full force. Please pray for his family, he leaves behind his fiance and two lil kids.

    tell me about it. Wasnt the first time i was at the scene of a friend passing but still sucks. this was 100% avoidable, the old guy was driving on the wrong side of the road and as soon as we saw him there he came right into us - no time really to react. Hope he rots in jail to be honest and there is a huge lawsuit to help his fiance and kids out.


    thanks man, God was def watching over me

    Sell the bike & buy a fast car with roll cage. Best of both worlds IMO.

    After my accident I have ridden a few bikes but I will never own one again unless it has knobby tires and goes vroom vroom in the dirt.

    ^^^ This I have been riding dirt bikes since I was 8 and I have never own a motor cycle. We just had 2 bad motor cycle accidents down here in the past month and 1 was fatal, just too many people not paying enough attention to the road.
