Snapped this picture the other day. This jeep seems a little overloaded to me. I guess it was since it was broke down on the side of the road. I bet you could steer that jeep easy though. Safety first I always say

*****EDIT*****


Looking at the picture a little closer, he is broke down in the middle of the road.

Does your car not have a hood??

On a more serious note, it is unbelievable what some people will try to do.

I see stuff like that all the time at the camp ground I work at. Worst was a guy pulling a 35' deck boat with an s-10, then he tries to sue because it drug his boat into the water.

I saw a guy in an old Nissan 2wd pickup a couple months ago. He had a full cube of bricks in the back and the rear bumper scraped the ground with every bump he hit. I snapped a picture but it didn't come out. That was ridiculous!!
This picture is ridiculous too. If I see an idiot like that I make sure to speed up and get in front of him so I don't have to sit in the traffic jam he's gonna cause.......

Cars doing good. Still getting around 51MPG. We finally moved into the new house 12/19/05. It is great and I feel much better with my family there. We still haven't sold the old house yet but hopefully we will soon. We don't have internet access at the new house (all we can get is dial up) so I have to keep up with everything every third day.

How is everything with you? Good I hope.

Doing well. As I mentioned in your other thread, #2 is on the way, so that is the exciting news in our life right now. Trying to do a little moving myself. We'd like to get out of the Dallas area and move down somewhere around Austin. It seems I've done all the damage I can do here so it's time to move on and see what I can tear up somewhere else.

By the way, my truck only gets about 21 mpg, so you've got me beat by about 30 mpg.

Oh geez..... not that again......

That video is the same one of the little car pulling the big trailer up the hill where it comes down in reverse and ends up on the side of the hill......

It is still funny though.....

electrifried, the block was probably for one of the ads on the site that video is hosted on.....

Apparently his concrete bed liner isn't working out so well......

Perhaps he should have done a concrete underhood blanket.

I saw a jeep CJ7 on 35's pullin a pontoon boat that was at least twice as long as the jeep. That was scary,since they can be unstable running solo. I made sure to pass him as quickly as possible!
