Good morning Dustin! What year Dakota though as I don't recognize that rim for a Dakota. Tire looks to small.

Good morning fellas!

Wow that is a bad wreck Troy. I bet it brought Morris to a hault for a while. And if we are all guessing then I will say Mitsubishi.

On another note, my furnace is still acting goofy. I have narrowed the problem to the inducer (exhaust) motor. It felt a bit sticky when I spun it by hand and needed a little help to get it going. So I hit the shaft with some lube and seems to work better. I did not wake up at 0300 his morning cold so I guess it is working. I might see if I can take it off and lube it better. I priced out a new one and of course it was $300! But it is a small price to pay for warm wife and not freezing the pipes.

Boy is Jay gonna have fun with this post now that I read it!

Sounds like you just need a lot more lube!

Nope it isn't those wheels. There are more spokes visible in the picture than what is on that Dodge wheel.

Nope. Slightly different. The Durango has 5 sets of "spokes" and the crashed vehicle has at least six or seven.

Man that thing is mangled. Hopefully she didn't suffer.

I took a stab at a Dodge, but I was wrong.

It looks like the crossing arms were broken off also.

I have heard both that she went around and that she slid on the snow through the crossing arms but I have heard from more people that she went around the arm.
