Worst trip ever... Aside from meeting a couple of you guys (bjaming, ctm..squirtsalot) the trip was a complete disaster. Had a blow out on the last 20 miles headed into Blythe which caused a damn good amount of damage to the truck. The damn key to lower the spare was missing. Thank god someone finally stopped. The dude had air tools and a die grinder so we cut the spare down. Got on the water around 6:30 friday night and forgot all about the troubles. Saturday morning got the boat in the water and made 1 hard run up river and down then all of the sudden you could smell fuel. The Fuel pump crapped out and was spraying fuel every where. Had my buddy bring what was left of my F250 down to goose at the end of the day to take the boat out of the water and ended up stuck. Had to air down just to get back out. Attempted to track down a fuel pump this morning but had no luck. Packed up like a beaten dog and went home. Pulled into the driveway about 30 minutes ago and now have an oil leak on the truck. Just not my weekend at all :banghead:
-
That blows dude, but at least all of you are OK. Can't always be picture perfect, that's why we own boats, lol
-
Yea super lucky on the blowout. Was running about 60 when it happened. Blew the right front to pieces and tossed us into the shoulder. Took a hard slide for about 100 yards before finally coming to a stop.
-
Someone watching over ya bud :thumbup:
-
Sorry to hear about all the bad luck this weekend seems like ur situation Is the example of when it rains it pours but no worries the sunshine will always shine threw and better weekends will be back soon enough brotha!!!
-

That sucks man. Hopefully all works out for you. I blew a tire on my 97 C3500 and destroyed a wire harness, fender and crumbled the steel fender. I almost felt as if my family wasn't in the car I'd rub a K rail and use my comp on insurance. Where is the oil leak on the F250?
-
Not really to sure. Washed it down a little bit ago. Gonna see if i can tell where its coming from

Was awesome meeting you guys, and sorry about the boat/truck shit you're having to deal with that doesn't sound fun at all man..Sunday believe it or not they actually lowered the water level AGAIN I put in for about 45 minutes...took a run up to goose flats and just about a 1/2 mile north it was about a foot deep...I turned around, packed up and left...I might have to go out this weekend and see if the water level has come up :D
