    Yeah, portents, as in .......the definition of portent

    Like maybe you falling out of the cabover was a dire portent. Maybe the fates were telling you to give that machine a good leaving alone.
    Hey, I'm not superstitious but it never hurts to pay attention to things like that.

    I think it may have been I was just used to stepping out of a conventional as a second nature. Why I fell on my face.

    My dad had one just like that with a 318 Detroit an 13 speed. You had to drive that thing like you were mad at it. That was in 1981. I was 15 years old then i would drive at night an dad would drive in the day light hours. I have been driving a truck ever since.
