The Great Kruso
I finally got to use 4 High gear on my Tacoma this morning because of the conditions being so awesome outside and black ice everywhere. My sis is a doctor and she had to go into work at 7am in the medical center towards downtown Houston and wasn't comfortable driving in these conditions in her car so she asked me if I could drive her there. It is a mad house out there... I saw three accidents in front of my eyes, folks just slipping and sliding everywhere into each other. I never thought I'd ever get to use that gear... since I almost always use 4 low when offroading.
I was pretty upset when some complete ghetto idiot called in to a local radio show and commented on how the weather man should be shot for declaring an emergency for nothing because he was from Detroit and has seen real snow. Dumb SOB's don't even bother taking into account that we're not equipped to handle these kinds of weather conditions and there's not a whole lot you can do when you hit a patch of black ice at times even at the slowest of speeds. I have family in Chicago and NewYork and I've driven everywhere in the US to my credit and it really gets to me when people try to make fun of Houstonians for causing accidents in this kind of weather once a year if at that. My rant for the day :mad:
