Rolled Cherokee this weekend
 

I was up at the local mud hole in Azusa Canyon Calif. this weekend and I
happened to see a VERY nice Cherokee end up on it's side. Then to make
matters worse the people that were trying to help him out ended up pulling
him over too far and he ended up rolling over onto his roof and upside down
in the river. At least he wasn't in it when this happened.

On the up side though, after he was uprighted it started right up and he was
able to drive it back to the staging area and load it up on his trailer.

I do have some pics of this but they are just so so due to them being taken
by a camera phone. If you want to see them mail me .

Did anybody watch Monster Jam on Speed vision this weekend?
Some guy in a Cherokee was out jumping it over the bumps. The first
one he got about a foot of air, the second bump, maybe 18". He hit
the 3rd one real hard, got probably 3' of air, and when it came down
the front end just collapsed with both tires splaying out to the
sides. Looked like one of those old cartoons from Bill's day.

Re: Rolled Cherokee this weekend
 

They use to sell Dodge trucks with a TV commercial that showed it
about fifteen feet up in the air, about twenty years ago? There was a
disclaimer in the usually small print, but it was well known it didn't
drive away.
