So the wife was down in san antone last year and her daughter totals her car... ok, insurance took care of it. Gets back up here and now its -20 and theres no washers on the windshield. She grabs the bottle of blue stuff outa the trunk and in small letters, it says NO FREEZE PROTECTION. Good for 32F only. The bottle of juice was frozen solid and split and the washer bottle under the hood was solid as well.... we should've emptied the tank before adding REAL solvent. Later today I gotta get the blow drier out there with a blanket and thaw the system out. Same goes for the rest of the system up to and including the PeePee squirters... Forewarned is forarmed. ws ---------- Post added at 09:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 AM ---------- An addendum... at 0500hrs, her daughter was on her way to work.. She sees two headlites coming up behind her like REALLY fast. She pull over into the right lane to avoid getting rear ended. As it turns out, its two illegals on crotch rockets doing 140- 160 mph. The object of the game of Mexican chicken; Los Pollos, was to scare the car driver and split around them. The loser gets killed. Pretty neat huh??? The one guy hits her Ford Taurus and totaled it, spinning the car around 3 times. The bike landed 200 feet away with the rider having two broken legs and some internal injuries. Treated and released and now recovering somewhere around Aquas Calientes , Mx. Neither bikes were licensed or insured BTW... Bill in TR
Im in favor of such games as long as these rules apply. The vehicle forced to be scared is heavy duty and no one in that vehicle gets hurt. Said vehicle must be of size and quality to receive crotch rocket and a height of the lowest point of the driver of said vehicle feet. Medical attention must be farther away then the Golden Hour All statistics published for this game in order for more chances of splitting the stoopid genetics gene down by 50 percent. Emphasis on only the rider of idiot mobile be of injured party... Oh and a bag of money be carried by both riders for self insurance. that is the closest sarcasm face i can find. Glad your young un was not hurt. No sarcasm.
Thanks, Im sure mom can appreciate that!! Her daughter (my step daughter) said it all happened in slow motion, as she spun around a few times, she also witnessed the Pindejo flying overhead and hitting the ground, bounce 2-3 times as much as 20 feet in the air... Just like the fast and furious but in real life. At first, the state cop was gonna establish "faultage" in a per cent thing (a texas deal?) with 20% on the daughter and 40% each on the riders. After a little more investigation they determined her to be at ZERO%. The two headlights she assumed were a single car, so she moved from the left lane to the right lane at a red light to get outa the way. I believe the intersection was on a bridge over the interstate. To bad Lupe' didn't fly downstairs into the truck lane... :ball: This shows the rear axle broken and bent and you can tell she was at a 45 degree righty to the lane. The other is a chunk-o- busted rim... and the last is a piece of jap bike fender impaled into a steel inner fender well... all from a crotch rocket... Meanwhile I got the blow drier on high with a blanket on the motor thawing out the blue water stuff... gonna suck it all out with the shop vac after the siesta! ---------- Post added at 02:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:15 PM ---------- So mom just corrected me... I was a bit off... the Daughter was doing 55 mph on the E-way and was rear ended at 100 mph. I thought she was at a standstill at a red light. So mom had un-insured motorist insurance which paid for the 2004 Taurus (nice clean jalopy) and she only had to finance 15K on a new one... good trick when yer on disability... meanwhile Lupe' is having a penis colladis with a little umbrella laughing his cast(s) off!
Glad ur daughter is okay ,those idiots brains are messed up they probably did stoopid stuff like that before!! And will do it again!!
So with no chance of getting above 20F for the next week and a bunch of soupy snow coming, we dropped the car off at my pals shop for an overnight thaw. Personally, I wouldnt be surprised if the tank is split and pump is busted... We shall see. I looked up removal of the tank yesterday and the first two parts were to pull the passenger front tire and wheel well; the bottle and pump come out the bottom; and at ZERO yesterday, I wasn't about to attempt that... I love it when Detroit lets "gamers" become vehicle designers....Definitely a game of donky kong here! Bill in TR
