5th Wheel Oops

This may not be the appropriate place to post this but i had to share to with my V10 brothers first... I would have to say if it were a Ford it would have just kept pulling...

From your title I figured you had the oops. Saw that last week. Looked more like an "Oh shi$$t" than an "oops".

Oops



Local News:

At approximately 3 PM, Tuesday, July 2, a 2008 Dodge Ram 2500, pulling a new travel trailer, hit the corner of the Texas State Bank Drive-In on Tenaha Street, causing the complete awning to come to the ground. Luckily, the driver of the Dodge, Mickey Miller, of Garrison and his 10 year old son were able to exit their vehicle uninjured.
According to Miller he was circling the bank to park on the other side when the corner of his travel trailer caught the corner of the bank awning. Next thing he heard was a rumble as the awning started falling against his driver’s side door. Somehow he was able to unbuckle the seat beat and exit the other side of his truck as it was falling.
Mark Ivy of Texas State Bank stated that the main lobby would be open for business while the drive-in is being repaired.

I sent that link to my wife... Now she finally understands why I'm so paranoid about pulling into parking lots with our trailer...

Yeah exactly!! It'll make you think twice about parking under them to get out of a hail storm
