Well in response to that, the first vehicle I drove, I'll admit I did two dumb things with, both doing donuts. It was my moms AWD Explorer with a 5.0 V8. The first set of donuts were in a field and I kicked up a piece of farm equipment that was burried under the grass. It came up into the fender well and bustedout the AC compressor.
The next time I did donuts, it was on snow and it was doing the cyclones like the Monster trucks do. Not donuts where the back end whips around, but where thefront is spinning too and the driver is the center, like a top. Well, the front differential didnt like that and BOOM, there she went. I know this pales incomparison to some of the stuff I'm sure some of you guys have done, but I will admit that I did those two things.
Since then I've had my Ram. I bought it in May of '04 and have driven it daily since. I've done many stupid things in it, donuts, dukes ofhazzard airtime over hills, taken it offroad (before it was lowered), hopped curbs, and have made hundreds of passes at the drag strip with it, and she keepson ticking. I've probably abused my truck more thatn most kids do theirs, merely because I like to drag race it.
I actually rolled over 100,000 miles in it this week, and she's still running strong despite my abuse.
