It was a long time ago but I was raising 2 babies by myself, no money, no brakes on the truck, and I would make essential trips using the E-brake!!! You gotta do what you gotta do... What about the guy with perfect brakes, over driving conditions, and rear ends another driver cause he wasn't paying attention? S**t happens man.
glad someone understands.. it was pretty stupid but it was my only choice.. and i did learn from it.. i also learned i can rebuild a master cyl with o rings haha but some guys on here gotta realize they have there trucks as hobby trucks but to some of us there still life lines.. i do appreciate the concern for my well-being and the well-being of others though.. it is nice to see that some people in this world still care... i pulled a guy from the ditch the other day and he said he had been there for 2 hours with no cell and that alot of people just drove on by.. how bad is that are people really to busy to pull someone out of the ditch in the middle of nowhere like come on a 2wd can do it im sure a 4x4 drove by him at some point!!

Re: Me and Cheyenne almost died today

It seems that this thread has run its course and has been closed...
I would like to remind everyone about the site rules
III. No pissing matches. Its fine to disagree, but once a thread has run its course, and degenerated into little more than an insult fest, it will be locked. While this will require a judgment call by the Administrators & Moderators. The members of this site can keep our moderating to a minimum by exercising a little discretion and self- control. Excessive profanity will lead to a 24 hour suspension at the Administrations discretion.

IV. Pure trolling, either to upset someone or simply for your personal
enjoyment, is strictly prohibited. If you're here to cause trouble, it will be a very short stay. Immediate BAN and you will be reported to your ISP.
