Two vehicles on the road, somewhere near wagonwheel NM, a chevy SSR (corvette truck) and a 45' Prevost custom coach towing a uhaul trailer with a chevy trailblazer on it.
I'm driving the bus. We're going.... faster then we should.
Guy in the SSR: "hey, how fast are you going?"
Me: "I don't know, the spedo's been buried for a while now"
SSR: "take a guess"
Me: "90?"
SSR: "yeah, that's about how fast the sparks are coming off the trailer rim"
Me: "oh. OH! OH!!!"
Thanks uHaul, we were on the side of the road, in nowhere NM for LESS Then 30 minutes. New tire, new rim, back on the road. Seriously less then 30 minutes. Oh yeah, and we slowed down to a slower 75 mph.
Stupid for sure but still a funny story.
