Best "Broke Down" Stories Options

[turbohcar]

Figured I'd post a fun topic to get back into the spirit of things since I've been kinda down about selling my quad. Post up your worst (or best depending on how you look at it) broke down stories. Anything from "I was broke down on the side of the road with a toothpick and one socket and fixed my wheel bearing" to "I was working on my auto trans DSM and rolled over and hit the remote start button in my pocket and trans fluid shot all over my face". Post 'em!!!




I know my story is being broke on the side of the road for about 4 hours trying to limp my car from Bloomington to Eureka on a blown headgasket. I made it to between Carlock and Goodfield before it finally started over heating and I didn't have any extra water with me. I called Rob (AWD DSM) and he drove all the way from Eureka, picked me up, and then drove all the way back to my place (15mi East of Bloomington in the country) to pick up my tow dolly. Once we got that picked up, it was a matter of going back to pickup the car and unbolting the driveshaft about 3 feet from 70mph traffic. Rob was kind enough not to make me go with him all the way to Eureka that night. We started on our way to his house about 5:30PM and it was every bit of 10PM by the time we got the car loaded up and on the way to his place.
