A few of yall already know this but if not....

Long story short... on the way to dinner car pulled out in front of me while I was speeding (70 in a 60), 1/4 mile or more of fish tailing around other cars/polls(skide marks prove it) a short slide in reverse, another 360 in to a ditch, a 180 out of the ditch and then back into the ditch and some bushes. All this with a cop watching. 6 people in the truck, 4 up front (with seatbelts) 2 in the back. My Gf in the back bumped her head other than that everyone's good. Exaust was stuck in the ground, truck would start build exaust pressure and die. Uncle pulled me out with his truck, jack was used to be exaust to where it wasn't draging. The car that pullout on my got hit by the car behind me. Cop said I didn't hit anything or cause any damage to anything so there was no reason to involve me with anything and to get out of there. He also said he can't belive I didn't hit the other car...

Bummer bro. Glad everyone is ok!!!

I bet the people in back about crapped their pants. . . I would never have folks in the back if I were gonna go above 40MPH. Glad you opted for the 4 seat belt option in the truck! ;) :D
 
wow....glad everyone is ok.....

the people in the bed may argue that it is their turn to ride up front from now on...:dontknow:

our vendors here will get that truck good as new....
 
You can put the the center seatbelt around two people and then the person in the center shifts.... (yea a quad would be nice sometimes...)

One of the tires is flat spotted, but other than that just the exaust. The drive from my apartment to where we were going was only about 5 min... leason learned...

I am going after i get off work(if I ever do get off) to get some pictures of the marks...

All I though about was the fact thet my GF was in the back and that if I let the truck go off the road sideways it would flip, I also thought if I pushed the clutch in it would spin out of control... She just stopped by work and has a nice little bump on her head, I am just glad we are all good...
 
Wasn't going to say anything, but since I'm kind of pissed off anyway so here goes.

Personally I think it's irresponsible to carry a dog in the back of a truck if it's not tied in. People?:confused: And a person that you are supposed to love?:dontknow: Sorry, but I think that's plain F*cking stupid. :(

I'm just glad to hear everyone made it out okay.

I realize that now and I deserve that ass chewing plus a couple more, trust me I will NEVER let someone ride in the back again. It's not to often I do stupid stuff like that, It was just one of those it's only five min. away what could happen....

well dude life is just a giant lesson learning as we go. i have slowed down quite a bit since that nasty wreck in front of where i work where 2 stangs were street racing almost a month ago.

the people that clean the office at night is related to the guy who is still in a coma from that wreck.

you were very lucky, God was with you.

As long as you learned from the experience then I will kind of take back what I said.

Thank god it only cost a bump on your girlfriends head.

Take care Zack.
 
Glad everyone is OK
 
Wow, sounds like you employed some great driving to get out of what could have been a huge mess!

Glad everything turned out ok.
 
Being lucky is a good thing. Thank God everybody is ok.

Personally I would never ride in the bed of a truck. I prefer seatbelts and airbags, I still got lots of things to do in life..........dont want to check out yet.

Glad everyone is OK and the only casualty was the exhaust. Looks like it's time for a Magnaflow :D .

I had people pulling out in front of me all the time. Don't know if it was due to being silver and blending in or what. I had my DRL's turned on and the pullouts have greatly decreased.
