Far better told around a campfire... or at least in person. Here's the short version... In the course of 4 seconds or less, I ran myself over twice with an un-manned rail (~1200#), it then crashed a fence (quite flimsy fence, and even more-so when the rail went through) and hit (only chipping the wood slightly) a deck on my neighbor's house... (he laughed histerically when I told him, and told me that I should be happy it wasn't the Jeep... which was quite accurate)


Also excluded are my stories of all things trailer-ish...

Although I'm sure you have had worse experiences, the whole truck jack knifing in the middle of delhi ave was an interesting experience. Luckily nothing was damaged/destroyed

Well I was going down Tealtown just past the Nature center and a mini van came left of center and hit me almost head on. Bent my rim, bent my bumper, destroyed my fender and bent my leaf spring into that nice S shape that everyone gave me crap about for so long. Put my spare on and drove home. Totalled the van.

My trailer was hit twice with my Jeep on it so I guess that counts too.

Got home late one night and parked on the street. That night a drunk driver clipped the left rear of the trailer and ripped both left tires off the trailer then went back out on the road and parked on top of a huge landscape rock in the neighbors yard.

Another time I was on AA and it went from 2 lanes to 1 lane. I got cut off and had to put the Jeep and trailer into the guard rail. Thats a great thing to happen when you are 1½ hours from home.

I have also had a Brad moment !! unmanned trailer screw up.

Back about 12 years ago the wife and I were getting ready to goto the Lake and I was still keeping my boat up here at a storage facility. We were friends with the guy that owner the place and we kept the boat in his 80 x 100 temp controlled building. Now the kicker was that the building was full of very high dollar classic vehicles ( Barrett Jackson kind of stuff .... no kinding ) . The wife was packing up the Van so I stopped by my dads and got his brand new truck to go get the boat . Once at the building I decided that instead of pulling inside and hooking up , that I would just man handle the boat and trailer around to the entrance so as to not bump any of the vehicles.
I pulled the truck up to the entrance ramp ( slight grade ) and then pushed the trailer to the entrance I turned around to walk to the truck when I hear the trailer rolling I was pinned in between the tongue and tail gate of Dads new truck :mad: :mad: .... tail gate and rear bumper on the truck were now customized by yours truely !!! I also had some wonderfully colorful bruises on both legs ...... note to self ..... next time just let it hit and don't try to stop 4000 lbs. of boat and trailer rolling down a grade .

Sarge,

What about the Houseboat/Runabout sandwich you were in? Does that qualify?
