    There was a particular pothole I recall driving over on I-70 in Indiana not quite a month ago that caused me to make an unholy utterance.

    Can't imagine that particular pothole has improved since that less than wondrous moment. :angry8:

    I know the one, it actully bent one of my shackles about 3 or 4 weeks ago. Hence the rush job on the new leaf springs.

    I don’t know about anyone else but I’ve been having problems with the site also. Nothing wants to load the first time. Go to thank someone and it goes into loading mode then fails but usually works on the second attempt. Same with replying to posts..

    Just slow and sluggish in general.
     
    The_vett and Flat Earth Trucker Thank this.

    That road is so bad , I believe it tossed the truck ! It blew one of my tires , I had to get a tow from Marshall to Terre Haute. I was lucky they were able to find a tire for me.
    Oh, and before my tire went......a Truck also had a blow out ....and I was so lucky to have that tire piece fly behind me, and the driver mantained his lane through that. For a millisecond I was worried, but he was a great Driver.
    Stay safe everyone. It always something ! .........and you Drivers make it better ! THANK YOU !
