Wake, 185 mph? What vehicle were you driving, couldn't be the truck!? Must have been a bike. That is pretty insane on a public road man, what was going on were you fleeing the scene or just out having a good time?

I finally got new speakers installed yesterday. Alpine SPR-17C. They are so heavy compared to the stock cardboard ones. The sound reproduction is much better. The Alpine's aren't as loud at the same volume level when next to the stocks, but they are starving for power. I hadn't wanted to replace the factory headunit until now, so I can amp the speakers (it already has a 6-disc and satellite radio). But now I've got the itch to do more... The wife just does not understand spending money on a truck.

Anyways, whats up everyone else?

I am still alive LOL wow its been a ruff week for me I almost got ran over at work on tuesday that was interesting Idiot didn't stop for a tow truck that was backing up into our yard. I was standing right next to a parked car it was a good thing. the ranger didnt spin around or it would have hit me and a co worker.. I mother censored him till the cops showed up. then I called him other names... driving like a idiot...

So I will explain the hole deal its a 4 lane road two northbound two southbound with parking on the side of the road for stores and stuff. that are marked in white strips the tow truck was taking up both northbound lanes. this Idiot went in the white striped lines to pass him on the Right... hit the stinger on the tow truck... You guys talking about tickets.. check what this guy got.
Failure to yield to a service vehicle.
Improper passing.
Improper lane usage.
Failure to use turn signal.
Not wearing seat belt.
Speeding

and the best part of it is He also got a failure to stop at the red light. Our camera's on the outside show a red light and him blowing it the redlight camera gave him the ticket while it took a picture of his face he wasn't wearing his seatbelt...

After that was all said and done police impounded his car witch WE are the impound lot and it was wreck $245 to get out of pound and 125 to tow. plus what ever else in fines.
He was in a hurry to get to the Casino so he can spend all his money. While he almost killed someone...

Also my top speed was 147 mph in a 94 jeep GC with a 318 mpi. on expressway. Ambulance was comming for my daughter she stopped breathing. She is okay now she was a baby still... had to have a heart and breathing monitors on her for 2 years after... but other then that their is not any reason for me to be a idiot and drive that fast. Unless I was at a race track... I look back at it and thought to myself I was stupid for driving like that I could have wrecked killed someone and or killed myself... now its 5-10 miles over the speed limit if that

I tried searching the forum but could not find an answer to my question. Not directly red truck related but I thought someone can point me in the right direction. Does DF have a mobile version of the site for smartphone viewing, replies and such?
