Every car I've owned since I was allowed to drive has had some sort of hail damage.

I ramped a baracade once. it was sweet. dukes of hazard type shit. except one of my front tires blew out, and all my hubcaps flew off.

Then you got ripped off by the guy that owned the garage and was also the sheriff of the town?

No person from a civilized state has ever said "Every car I've owned since I was allowed to drive has had some sort of hail damage."
That's kind of like saying "Every car I've owned since I was allowed to drive was a little 1979 Toyota pickup that had a machine gun mounted in the bed, above the cab."

[LeNeve]

ummm. I had a late 70s toyota pickup too. without the machine gun though.

The road to our pit was in desperate need of some more gravel then graded flat. The RM has strict rules for the gravel and then this gets dumped and another car was coming so I couldn't avoid it.

I've only had to replace one rim because of hitting a pot hole.
Weird thing was, I didn't have to replace it until about a year after it happened.
That wheel was on back of my car, then as soon as I got them rotated, and moved to the front, it wouldn't hold the seal.

This one started leaking air right away. It made it the 1/4 mile to the pit before it was too low to drive on. Jim whacked it back into place with a sledgehammer. It's fine now.

[LeNeve]

on several occasions I stood in the bed with a gun shooting at vicious prarie dogs, and rabid coyotes, while someone drove.

[LeNeve]

that would be sweet, if every car I ever owned had a machine gun turret.

It really is like mad max thunderdome shit out here. ad:

Damn. That's pothole-type damage

I don't think my tire went flat right away, but it did get a huge bulge in it.
Yeah, I know I said "huge bulge".
So I had to get new tires.

raging bulge

I saw the new X Men, and really liked it.
And Apocalypse is going to be in the next one, I was starting to think they would never include that story in the movies.

My feeble attempt to knock out all of my work today is not going well.
