    Haha me too! That UHaul guy? Were you there when the dude unhitched the trailer and it started to roll down the hill?

    Damn jokers!

    Nah, it was a red Dodge Ram or something. I live up in Thornton area and drive to 120th or so for work. He was half-sideways from spinning so much trying to get up the hill. Looked like a 4x4 model though, so I don't know why he wasn't in 4 wheel drive....

    Oh, one of those Dodge Sprinters was stuck going up Washington from 84th (in Thornton). He was sideways in the right lane and had a Uhaul trailer. Thought maybe we saw the same stupidity.

    Very close area, different stupidity. It was on Conifer street.

    Heard from the wife this morning that it took her 2 hours to get into work that is 7mi away and she works right across the street from my building.

    Luckily, I can log in from home. So that's what I'm doing today.

    Bet he had bald tires. He could have 10-wheel drive with bald tires and have the same trouble. I am always shocked at how many people think that because they have a 4x4 they can go anywhere in anything yet they still have bald tires. Doesn't matter how many wheels have power if your tires don't have any traction...that goes the same for stopping too. 4x4's can't slow down any faster than 2-wheel drive...this is directed at all those tools that drive 80 in the snow in their 4x4 SUVs. Hope you're not behind me when I need to stop.

    Man I agree about the 80 mph and stopping. These asshats are sliding every which way trying to aviod hitting a car but yet still do 80+. I use to carry "c" batterys in my car when I was younger, ahh how I miss those days.

    Im not home or I would have been cruising past most people. Get your 2wd mustang pos outta my way! 20 mph on the highway....you should be on a side road. And yes I will put my tires in the middle of the lane with all the slush and gunk as I pass you and get all that shit on your slow ass!
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    Exactly. I didn't take a look at his tires, but I'd be willing to bet he was in need of some. Only the right-rear tire was spinning when he was trying to get up the hill, lol.

    Saw a red Ford Ranger fish tale back and forth a few times in the middle lanes of I-25 as he tried to gas it around someone as soon as he got on the highway. I rolled down my window and flipped him off when I passed him. I don't think he noticed.
