I drive fast. Nothing to really explain.

I will say a month ago that one drop off between ramah and sorrel on the levee road took me by surprise.

Had enough time for my little boy to say "uh oh" in the air.

Landed smooth and I got cheers and claps from the back seat.

That limestone road is absolutely excellent for driving this time of year.

Screw the wrecker.

Grab a cheater pipe, set of wrenches, torch, new upper arm, another case of gold tops, and drive that mug off the mountain baw.

Update.


A flat bed accompanied by a wheel lift came to get the truck.

Flat bed rolled the truck up onto bed by using some kind of rolling bladder in place of broken wheel.

Then the flat bed pulled forward into creek and turned around.

Then the wheel lift dually came in front of flat bed and hooked the flat bed to his back.

The wheel lift assisted the flat bed with the white pickup on top.

I will get more details soon.

I had a front end knuckle go out on a pathfinder one time, three Mexicans went to a salvage yard and got a slightly used one.

Then fixed in my driveway in about 45 minutes.


A good mechanic could fix this on site if he had the tools and parts

We thought about that but he lives in Richmond and this was on Abington.

He wanted to get this thing out. Truckers finally said frik it. Let’s get it before this guy calls someone else.
