    Well i was on my way home from fire class walago and got bout half way home and noticed my temp was risin. My buddy was infront of me and a car in front of him. Well it was pitch black where i was ..... so i passed them so i cud get on down the road further to where i knew a good bit of light was..... well i got there and pulled off. Well next thang i know the car pulls in behind me still sittin in the road and stops ..... then goes down the road and turns around and comes back and stops again. I guess they got my tag number or sumthin. O well , i guess they are mad cuz i crop dusted them with antifreeze or because i passed them.

    But anyways i poped the hood and found my top radiator hose blowed off the radiator..... them ol squeeze hose clamps aint worth a dam


    I pray i dont have any trouble goin to nashville saturday .... i been really babyin my truck and thankin bout trustin it more than i do and then this happens a day before i plan to drive it 200 miles round trip to nashville

    No big deal there man, just make sure the hose goes back on good and tight and put a real hose clamp on this time
