I was heading north on I-5 near Boeing Field in my pickup next to the passenger lane 7:30 AM Friday morning about 55 in moderate traffic and I was closing in on a bus in the in that left lane. In my rear view mirror, I spotted a Kia lSoul with a half dozen Asians closing in on me fast... the car swerved into the (what do they call that lane?} HOV lane behind the bus blasting p and called 911ast me and swerved right in front of me snagging my left front bumper which caused the car to swerve right across me and I jammed the breaks. He proceeded into the lane to my right where he was slammed full force by a pickup passing me on the right. The Kia with a half dozen Asians arm and legs going everywhere the spins across in front of me and slams into the bus he was trying to pass. And behind me, I start hearing crash after crash as two lanes of cars collided into one another starting with that pickup truck to my right. I pulled over to the left lane ahead of the now parked Bus and called 911. There were 15 or 16 autos involved in the accident. My truck was hardly scratched..just a front bumper pulled out of shape. All the Asians miraculously survived. I was there giving reports to police until 9:00 am. Traffic was backed up for miles on a Friday morning with only one lane going thru. All because this guy in the KIA was in a hurry in the passenger lane and tried to execute a swerve into my lane in front of me to get around the bus ahead of me. What a mess... cars stacked up like driftwood... lots of injuries... and I was lucky, lucky, lucky

Most lifted pickups develop major problems with alignment issues, u-joint troubles, tire wear issues, basically ignorant youth with a vision of what cool is.....
Love the Sardinecanistan.......gonna use that one lol :D
$$$$$ Yep..the hidden cost of ownership is all this overly complex new fangled stuff that needs more upkeep than it's worth. My girlfriend has a turbocharged 2015 Fiat that is engineered on purpose to be a nightmare to keep running right.
We're going to sell it and look for a pre-fuel injection era computer controlled Jeep, or a full sized Ford or Chevy truck from the 1960s to the late 1970s. A Blazer or a Bronco would be great.
These types of cars have excellent parts support and are simple to work on machines that just run and run.

Just move to Iowa and you will see some of the worse drivers in the country, pull out of gas stations without looking (happened last night to me), making a left turn from the right lane in front of the police station.
