On the way home we hit rain and construction at the GA/SC line. After crossing the line into SC in the rain had a Lexus SUV that had been weaving earlier cut in front of me then slam on brakes when the cars ahead of them were going slower then he thought. I locked it down, TG for ABS, when I saw I was about to rear end the SUV I went for the median. Stopped breaking and hit the accelerator I think, letting it slip and slide past the steel cable SC has all along the median. The truck and trailer tried to jack knife several times in both directions. I don't know how I did it but I keep my cool and kept it straight enough to get it slow enough to re-enter the interstate. Ol'Blue was behind me and saw the whole thing. After I got Little Glenn settled and me in the right lane I called Ol'BLue and said I was stopping asap to check the trailer and truck. Little Glenn has decided that maybe he can ride with me in the jeep now. :thumbup: Scarer experience at 60 MPH let him see that the jeep crawling through the woods isn't so scary even though it feels like it going to flop.

That sucks dude... Glad to hear it was all ok in the end. You should register the beast and drive it to the trails. Not many cars on the road would get too close to it.

I took the back roads home and heard banjos the whole way... that was scary enough.

I saw the whole thing from about 8-9 cars back. Was wondering why he was wheeling just after we crossed the State line, ....happy to be home?
I'm now thinking..call him or wait.....ring ring ring....Hey dave we are going to pull off and check the rig, shorts and clean um out....10-4 Ghost. Holy Crap! that was funny. (He made it so we can now..:D)
Get to the B.P. parking lot, Little Glenn ain't scared, he's like....we should have just wheeled over that fool....Ghost is like...."I am going inside to pee (Somber tone)...I'll be right back.......:roflmao::roflmao:..

Worst thing is, we could not catch the Lex and wheel over the thing...:rattle:
