well this was the 2nd week we went wheeling in a couple different parts of the west coast, and once again it was an adventure. well ill start from the beggining. last weekend two buddies of mine decided we should go to cali for some wheelin and a good friends weddin which would be in the mountains in oroville, ca. well we got there and after the wedding a few friends jumped in my pathfinder and a few in his cherokee. after two hours of hill climbs and doughnuts in the mud and rain, my alternator went out, the power steering pump started this horrible whine, and the starter starts acting up, all at the same time. so anyway we towed my truck home off of the mountain and fixed it so i could head back to az. anyway moving on to this friday night. a friend went who took his toyota truck(4wd broken) and the pathfinder went up to prescott, az for some snow wheelin. we made it all the way to the top of the hill and on the road down he loses tracktion and ends up rolling his toyota down a hill about 25 feet with one single roll(he also just had his truck painted and body work done while we were in cali), while i was behind him following. after i jump out and see what if he is okay, he jumps out and makes it to the top of the hill with a crazy look on his face. it turns out he is okay and his truck is still running with the lights on and of all things, he still has the cigarette in his hands that he was driving down with. so he jumps in my truck and on the way down, i slide into a ditch and then my starter finally dies so i cant get it started either. long stry short, two trucks go up, and none make it down without a towtruck. what a good two weekends wheelin.
ps sorry for the long story.
