1/2 hour later, on the freeway doing 65, and experienced the biggest BANG imaginable.
Transmission just exploded. Sparks flying out both side. Spit a drive line.
Looks expensive under there............ :'(

I think your truck finally buckled under all that biggie weight. :chuckle:

All's well that ends well.

My wife came and got us. She got there about 3:30. Truck was packed with stuff for a 4 day tent camp. It wouldn't fit in her car. So we grabbed the rifles and went home.
I just went to tow the truck to the tranny shop.
Plan was to lighten camp and take my wife's Subaru.
But the plan has changed again.
My truck has been towed...... with my deer camp in back.
Sure hoping it was State Patrol impounding. That will piss me off because I was a safe distance off road. But it won't piss me off as bad as if someone else decided they wanted it.
ARE WE HAVING FUN YET?????????????

My current belief is that they are part the an organized crime family....... and they operate in partnership with the State Patrol.
I've always been pro-LEO, but for the life of me I don't know why the patrolman felt compelled to tow me. Right now I'm so pissed I smell a kickback.
Off hours gate entry fee, trespass fee, 2X the cost for a Saturday to to impound me, 2X the cost to tow it out on Saturday.
Frickin crooks.

Although I realize that I'm a very fortunate man. Nothing but relatively minor 3rd world problems for me.
This one just bit me on the opener.

Oh, you're one of THOSE guys! :chuckle:
Just kidding!
That sucks, at least you weren't up in the hills with no cell signal with the snow going sideways!
Hope some light shines for you this weekend!

We were in a fairly remote little road. First vehicle came by about 1.5 hours later. I'd like to say I had jumper cables, but they are in the truck. The guy didn't have any either, but he drove to a buddies house and borrowed some. Took him about an hour to get back. Great guy. Needless to say, I just drove home.
It's been a terrific hunting season. :tung:

Contest the impound. If you where well off the road they can't tow you without tagging you first.I would listen to this guy. :twocents:
Post by: Blacktail Sniper on October 25, 2017, 07:48:34 AM
If not, when you picked-up the rig, the tow company should have given you a form to contest the impound/fees. I would submit that within the time lines it says to contest it.
