Hopefully peace of mind, too. No use losing your head over electrical if you're still worrying about it afterward

Had issues like that back in HS. Tried to confront the boy who was messing with my truck but he always avoided me. Looking back now, it's probably best he did.

I drove it to work since it is snowing had a coworker tell me it couldn't pull a broke down f150 from our front lot to the back lot which is about 750-800 ft away around the building and uphill. I hooked up by winch tugged he truck 90* then pulled it around and up the hill in reverse. Proving him wrong and parked Ontop of a snow pile for a victory dance only to fall on my *** when I jumped out of the jeep .

I would've shouted "close enough" after falling out.

Lol it's alright, Tom. I drove home from work this morning on clear roads and parked the truck. I took two steps and slipped on black ice in the parking lot. Didn't spill my drink!
