That's a funny story. While at college, several of my fellow teammates and I went for a quick ride in my car before baseball practice. About an hour into practice, We hear some fire whistles going off. We can see the smoke from about 300 yards off and wonder what the heck is going on. The firemen put out the fire, and about an hour later we all walk from the field to where we had parked. Guess what was burning.
Not a complete loss though, I still drove it for another year.
doobies can be a health hazard. 😁
My Impala could do the same thing, and it didn't cost me a penny for those special hydraulics'
I just never replaced the shocks.
Just pump the brakes and getter bouncing!! HAHAHAHA. I used to do that in this Isuzu dump truck. It was a cab over and with a load of gravel in the back I could pump the gas in second gear and with expert timing I could get the front tires to come off the ground. The other guys I worked with at that landscape company would die laughing.
I was LOL reading this reply.
I did a wheelie in a tandem dump one summer while working for my father-in-law, he was a road builder.
While spreading pea gravel, my very first time doing this, I raised the body of the truck to about a 35 degree angle while, stopped. The chains were on the gate to allow the stone to be spread as I crept up the road. Once I got rolling I just needed to pull the handle which would open the gate while I was moving.
Being new at this, I popped the clutch, and with the body in the air, the truck stood right up on its tailgate. I was looking at the heavens. My brother-in-law had to attach a chain to the front axle and pull the truck back down using the D-8 bulldozer.
That was a little hairy, and needless to say I got my alls busted for years.
😂🤣😂🤣😂. AWESOME!!!
