My real name is Jason, but my friends call me Ruck. I used to drive a 1999 Dodge Dakota Ex-cab 4 x 4 magnum V8 (you can probably tell that I really liked that truck) until I decided to roll it 7 times down the interstate, now I DRIVE a 2000 Ford F-150 4 x 4, but I HAVE a 1972 Mustang Mach1 that I am working on. It is not even close to original thanks to the previous owners, and I can't afford to put it back.
I hope to get to know some of you, share war stories of bloody knuckles and smashed fingers.

Please tell me that wasn't you in the middle divider of Rt. 79 south in WV yesterday morning... I know it was a black Dodge of sorts. :eek:
Glad that you're alright even if your truck isn't. And don't worry, I won't make too many inbreeding jokes. ;) :p

Yeah, I got hurt. I didn't have my seatbelt on, and I was thrown from the truck and it landed on top of me. I had third degree burns on my back from the exaust system, and it crushed the right side of my face. I am all better now, I had two of the best plastic surgans around. I have one little scar on my face and....well I have a real big scar on my back but I didn't have to get skin grafts. I have a titanium plate in my face....lol.....I am the bionic man! It hurt more to know that I destroyed my 8 month old truck than the injuries.

Well...It was the middle devider of I-79 in WV, but it was September 1, 1999.

Owwy???? Like big owwy???
Glad that you're atleast somewhat better now. There are parts of 79 in WV that are probably a little too "dangerous" for 70mph. But on the other hand, it's nice to be able to fly right on through WV.

My problem wasn't that the speed limit was too high!! My problem was that I had been working to much and going to school at night and I fell asleep at the wheel. I had my cruise set too. Just to let everyone know, the cruise control doesn't kick off when you hit something. I don't know if it was supposed to but it didn't.
