On the way to town I was pretty worried this had been a loss of life accident but by the time I got headed back I stopped to visit with the vaqueros who were putting the fence back up. I was shocked when they said the guy lived and was going to be fine!

Alls I can say is he must still have a purpose here and fellas- if you lift your truck and put big tires on it be extra careful pulling trailers- you have altered all the physics & geometry engineered to keep you alive.

Wasn't it Coos that jumped all over someone for taking pics of an accident?

A few weeks ago we had a local have that happen to him only he was lucky enough not to have a trailer behind him. It was explained to me that because of the larger tires and being jacked up, it changes the angle/geometry of the tie rods causing them to break under pressure. He had one go while taking a long corner rather fast and this put him into the ditch breaking the other one. Didn't roll it and walked away alright, but I'm sure he needed to replace the air freshener in the cab.
