    Yeah walcott. My fault for parking in a pull thru . Instead of grabbing a easy exit spot like normal. Or a back corner spot where no steering wheel holders ever go. Some ppl was just born stupid. Dont even know who it was who did it. He took off like lightning. When i got up to look it was no one around but my mirror pushed forward. Woke me up out of a deep dream and thats hard to do

    If you have not already got a 100 dollar day night dash cam now would be the time. That would be what I consider a hit and run. If you catch the offender next time all over it in glorious 4K then there is no running from that.

    I used to pick like the worst spots to park on the assumption Mr FlipFlop holder does not wanna deal with it.

    Unfortuantely I get trapped a few times. THAT leads to be a BIG trouble. Ive talked about firings, yelling and so on, but losing the day or night due to being trapped and no way out is just too much loss all around.

    Now if there was some sort of a mechansim to "Rotate" or steer a set of trailer tandems... or better yet individual wheels and the duals on them. It cannot be that hard, heavy object and big block kids do it all the time.

    Wow, i appreciate the offer. I still need to get my endorsement and such, but if you still have the Goldwing in a few months i’d be willing to drop the cash on it. I’ll try and keep you posted. Thanks.

    Sir. Oh my goodness!! I am never seeing anyplace like this in my life!!! How i can back up here??????

    "You need to back through the gate."

    Oh my goodness!!! But my truck is pointed the other way.

    "You need to turn your truck around. "

    How??? How I'm going to turn around????

    "That's up to you."

    Real, actual conversation at this receiver.

    And this place is probably one of the most F there is. U.S. Foods in Phoenix.

    Somebody snapped and drove through the fence. One of the posts is bent perfectly to fit an aero truck lol.

    One of these days I need to sink incisors into a proper salmon. I know that is not exactly a common fish east coast however there was a place in Frederick called May's that knew how to do seafood. I wonder if they are ever still in business. Its a tiny little place as places like that go. But the food...
