Good looking out! I’ve got a handful of similar stories where you try to offer a helping hand and someone that has more confidence than sense, ruins the attempt. Stupid should hurt, you just hope when you’re lending a hand, you don’t get the bad end of the deal. Read more
I somehow managed to forget this sad story about trying to do good and instead being an idiot. Read more
That’s fantastic. Read more
In the same situation, when I owned a winch equipped Wrangler, I always looked for times to be a Good Samaritan. Read more
Counter-countersteer: how often have you helped a stranger who has run out of gas?

Skip Barber and Barber motorsports park are not the same thing.
This isn’t just limited to GM, but to all manufacturers regarding things I miss... Read more

Nothing. The car is back on by the time your foot is fully off the brake pedal. People said the same thing about ABS, then traction control, then stability control, and they’ll continue to say it about this until it’s just commonplace. People will shit a brick when they eventually introduce a hybrid wrangler, up until… Read more
