With great power comes great responsibility. My last truck I got 600,000km out of her, the break up was hard though. Going 110km/hr on highway. pulling a loaded trailer. Cylinder 1 connecting rod bearing failed heat siezed stalled, no brake assist or power steering. A bit of a pucker factor.
Anytime you can park a truck and trailer like that and still walk away is a good job.

Damn I’d try to drive it home too. I wouldn’t want anyone to see the brown on my pants after a close encounter with Jesus like that.
