There is a pretty short line from the white house to the $hit house. Things can go south quick, especially winching etc. inverted springs, electrical fires, rollovers, the list goes on. Even getting your arm trapped against the center console by a tree.

Even getting your arm trapped against the center console by a tree.

Well that sure sounds specific! Is there a story behind that?

Unreal how easily that truck tipped over. But who the heck drives around with 5x8 metal boat tied to the top of their rig.

Well that sure sounds specific! Is there a story behind that?

A young whipper snapper named Jake that had a beautiful red 40 that went on his first out of state wheeling trip with us, flopped his 40 the first day out. The 40 rolled into a tree. The 40 lucked out because the tree went into the open door way and amazingly didn't sustain any damage. Jake wasn't so lucky and the tree pinned his arm against the console. Jake went to the hospital and flew back home with a broken arm.

He didn't let it get him down though. He prevailed and returned to wheel again and again.
