I have finally, in the last week or so got my car back on the road. Well tonight my wife and I decide to take it on its first good drive in quite some time. We got about 3 miles from home after being gone for about 45 minutes and some jackass cuts me off and slams on the brakes at 45 miles an hour. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
If it was not for good brakes and an empty center turn lane I would have ate the assend of a SUV. Did a pretty good job of flatspotting the right front tire but other than that got away unscathed. When we finally got around the guy we could tell he was fighting with his wife/girlfriend. Didn't even know we were there,or that he had almost caused a major accident. Just remember to drive like you are invisible, BECAUSE YOU ARE!!! Be careful everyone. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

All real men want to make there mark in life, but lets not make ours on the front
of a Mac Truck. I have heard simular, and have a few of my own stories. The one thing they all seem to have in common is the handling and brakes saved there lives. I love this car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
