    Saw this on my way home earlier. Not sure if it just fell out, or the truck got hit and spun around while losing its rear end. There was another car with the front end smashed. I’m wondering if maybe it hit the truck on the side we can’t see in the pic and spun it.

    May be that he was driving around with rusty spring mounts...those OBS Fords were bad for rusty mounts, that's why many of the parts stores have them in stock!

    They really need to inspect old rusty vehicles better, they can be very dangerous!

    I don't like when the Dr. does inspections.

    No more safety inspections in CT anymore. Just emissions. They did away with them quite a while ago. I’ll bet it’s been 20 years.

    Normally I agree Jack, but the state here with their inspections, Is getting ridiculous. For instance if you have any rust on your brake lines it must be replaced. They don’t do safety Inspections, they do make money inspections

    Bigger trucks too. Some of the older hopper bottoms were road salt collectors.
