Rolled my bronco all the way over at 35 mph. Without being buckled in, I rode it out. Battery went flying 1 direction, fuel cell the other. Just $100 worth of damage and a bruised chest and ego, but it runs once again.

Was it a chevy or in import? The import would CERTAINLY break a lugnut, but it'd be just like a chevy to scratch the chrome on your muffler and rip one of your (88) hot pink shock boots...

I ruined my truck once.

I was busy installing a deployable landing gear from a 727 on my 350 in Antartica when the nomads wandered in and began shooting the place up. I decided to flee (only having the front and rear-left landing gear complete). I then flew to the nearby Red Sea and, due to my trucks submersing tendancies, plunged in. I then switched to submarine mode, dove to the base of the sea, and deployed the tunneling gear. I decided it would be safest to burrow my way back home. However, when I surfaced, to my disgust, I discovered myself in an Afghan cave with Taliban and all swarming around me w/ their AK's. I ran over those that I could and lay down supression fire as I blasted a way through the cave walls and returned to burrowing, sealing my exit tunnel behind me as not to be followed. I resurfaced only to find myself on the moon. I then knew the only way to return home was via space travel. Therefore, using my insurmountable knowledge of everything, I devised a plan for rocket engines using my wheels as combustion chambers and mounting my injectors from the heads in the newly designed combustion chambers. This proved to be highly effective. Most of the fuel was used up during launch, but as there is no resistance in space I coasted to the earths atmosphere and deployed my landing gear (only two of them, remember) and made the most miraculous landing in human history. I also met an alien named Shewackzinialfyelethroenobe, which loosely translates to Bob the Man.

I am still repairing and rebuiling my truck.
