Final update: The broken sub-frame took out the axle (stripped it) and another part. With the two new tires, wiper blades, and inspection sticker (which was due this month anyway), I spent a grand on this one.
I need another game day. |

At least you weren't hurt. AND you missed a bunch of meetings.

I had a day like that, kinda.
A long time back I was out trapping wolves. This involved taking my boat about 20 miles to a distant island. After arriving at an island with logging roads, I tied to a small dock that connected to the logging road with a ramp. I lowered my 4wheeler on the dock with my winch and headed out to check my traps. Well, about 3 miles down the road, I remembered that I forgot my handheld VHF radio so I drove back to the boat to get it. I drove down the ramp and left the 4wheeler running while I jumped back on the boat and grabbed my radio off the galley table. Just as I got out on the deck with the radio, I see my 4wheeler going off the dock right into the water!! Holy &*(&%*&^(*)(!!@! I left it idling like I've done 50 times, but for some reason it slowly rolled right off the dock. It flips over and is now floating upside down with just the tires sticking up. After an hour of dorking around I get the 4wheeler beside the boat and winch it aboard. Drain the water out, change oil etc. It won't start, I drive back to town hours later for my upcoming game. Get docked up, start driving to town for game. Truck runs out of gas! Gas tank has rusted out! Of course I didn't know it was out of gas, since I had just filled it the day before so I waste a bunch of time trying to get it started. Discover problem so I walk 4 miles to the house, (miss the game, luckily it was 3man and I told one of my partners I was going out and might be late) As I enter the house at about 7:00, wife says, did you get your mother a birthday present? (All the stores are closed by now.) Yep, bad day.
