Whats your biggest fail involving your CB?

[RagingAsian]

So thats my question, I have a few, but the one that really gets me going is what happened in July.

I was leaving work, and where I work is a very industiralized area, and the road leading in and out of the area has lots of easy turns and the speed limit is 45 MPH.

Anyways, it was about 7:20pm ( it was about sunset and I am just happy to about getting home, anyways, I am going down the road at about 50 MPH. I see this Ford Expedition parked on the side of the road...looked like someone was leaving the junkyard...I think nothing of it...then a nanosecond later...a girl, about 3 years old, wearing a pink dress, darts out from the expedition and stops dead in th middle of my lane. (the road is 2 lanes ( for for each direction) with a narrow shoulder and then has grass, then a fence, on each side)

Anyways, when I see her stop in the middle of the road about 60 feet in front of me. I slam on my brakes, roasting the shit out of my brakes and tires. Well I realized in that instance, that wasnt enough, and all I remember I pulled my E brake and turned my car sideways and hoped to God I wasnt gunna hit her. In fact I think I told myself I would be OK if I wrecked the CB.

I remember looking in my side mirror, and then my back bumper almost clipped her, and then she ran back to th shoulder.....when I hit the dirt...I lost traction, and went running into the bushes, and then rubbed the side of the fence with my front bumper.

I ripped off my front valance that covers the front portion that covers the bottom of the engine.

After collecting myself, I got out of my car and saw the girl, in the arms of her mother and I dont know if I have ever been more relieved in my life. Anyways, mother said she was sorry about what her daughter did, and I was like " Well if my car hit her, it would have been a different story all together"

wow, that's crazy! Stupid little girl!

I can't think of any moments like that. Most of my shenanigans with the CB7 were back in High School.

that sounds intense.

but my biggest fail was selling my cb.

Getting stuck on top of a speed bump, and having to push it off.

The biggest fail about it was the fact my fiance was sitting in the passenger seat saying, "you're going to get stuck on it, don't go over it".
After I got back in the car from pushing it off, she said "I told you so".

you mean it was too low?

I woulda said something else...about her weight and the height of the car.

yeah but if you say this to her you don't get laid later

[RagingAsian]

true fact, but girls like honesty.

Chances are if the hussy is heavy enough to make your car get stuck on a speed bump then she's not worthy of the Ending one would do to her genitalia later in the evening.

Josh's car doesn't look insanely low either so he must have been dealing with one big hussie... unless it's someone he cares about... in that case she' pretty and nothing is wrong with her Josh.

There was one time when my mom's car had a flat tire, and I didn't have time to fix it, so I drove her to work since it was on my way to school. Normally when I go to her work I don't take the CB because her work's parking lot has too many speed bumps it takes me forever to get through it and she works in the last office, but I was going to school and the CB was my registered car for parking, so I had no choice.

I got to her work and half way through the parking lot that she was like forget it I'll just walk to the back, and after she left I had to go over a speed bump to make a U turn and get out of there.

What I didn't know was that on the other side of the speed bump was a pothole I couldn't see. I was on my gold rims with extra low profile tires that day. After going over that bump my wheel fell into the pothole and my car was sitting on the speed bump. I had someone help me push it and drove it out of the pothole. My oil pan will always have those battle scars.

my aftermarket wheel's fell of my car while in motion. wrong lug nut size. FAIL.

[RagingAsian]

when did that happen?

[tommi]

letting a friend of mine install a fuel pressure regulator. and since the car had ran and fuel spewed out. he thought he would take the liberty to use his lighter as a light instead of just simply going inside to find a flashlight. my car caught on fire and a rolling rock had to be wasted to put out the fire. luckily limited damage was done..

or when i drove over a curb and scraped the fuck outta my underside. lol that was sick. young and stupid i was. thank god i wasnt lowered yet.

My car isn't insanely low. Most speed bumps I can get maneuver over just fine. My exhaust and cross member scrape occasionally. But, these were monster bumps. I went back and measured the next day and they were 7.5" tall.

Foot in mouth didn't know you were with your fiance. Thought it was some random chicl, I just went back and read your reply. Ignore my post lol. Hopefully we're still like Donny and Marie Osmond.
