Talking My Ram survives!

If any of ya'll heard about the tornados in Texas today, well I was there. I live in kennedale, where one of the bigger ones started (f2 or f3, still dangerous). Anyway there was a total of 12 of them cloud toilets today in DFW. By the way, down here dfw does not only refer to two cities, it's about 15 or more lol. Arlington declared a state of emergency and some other cities further away did as well. If your interested in learning more just go to wfaa.com. Oh and there was golf-ball sized hail. Anyway I managed to keep my truck under the tree at the park n ride I park at which shielded it from the hail. I left class early and jumped in my dodge and got the hail outta dodge. Lol. Anyway I rushed home before the next twister made it towards i20 and almost crashed about 20 times. So much rain I couldn't see sh*t. I get to my home in Kennedale which is perfectly fine no damage at all, and I then realize. Today I cared more about keeping my truck safe then my house. I never even thought about my own home! Well sorta I did worry about my dogs, but other than that, it's all about my dodge. Sorry if this bored y'all I just wanted to post about this because you had to have been here to understand. I stayed outside taking pictures when one was a mile away coming at me, that was fun too! But don't try that I'm not a very safe person.

Well it's good you are okay man. I live in Abilene and was hearing a lot about there being twisters that direction, we had quite a bit of small hail here, but nothing serious at all. And I know how you feel about the truck, there is a special bond between a guy and his truck.
