Re: power steering problem
Or, if your luck is nowhere near good (or you have an amazingly failtastic fluke) wind your truck up in the drink. I've almost seen that one happen... 2wd light truck + heavy boat plus boat ramp so slick with algae that it's impossible to stand on it = almost epic lulz.IMBoring25 wrote:but hauling a heavier boat up the ramp would probably leave eau de clutch in the air.
