Well yesterday was a very sad day.
My friend and I went up to Gainesville yesterday to go tailgating before the Gator/Bulls game. I am a Gator and she is a Bull, so this was a very important game....
On the way home, about 1 mile south of Gainesville, i heard a kaboom, the whole entire truck shook and then just rolled to a stop....motor exploded....grenade style. Turned it back over and it sounded like someone dumped an entire 300pc socket set inside and it was kicking everything around.
So there we sit....im happy that the Gators STOMPED up on the bulls, but my baby(truck) is sitting on the side of the road helpless. I am 120 miles away from home and most tow truck services charge like 150 hook up fee and like 7 dollars a mile. Well i called a buddy that owns a wrecker company, and he sent me his heavy duty wrecker. He charged me 75 bucks to hook up and only 2 dollars a mile, so it only cost me 360 oppose to close to 800...lol
So currently its sitting outside awaiting on my decision on what to do....
Im beyond sad
