A guy driving down my road today ( A route that is fairly busy ) fell asleep and went off the road heading for my Vette . I feel bad for my neighbor but I'm happy there driveway is right before mine ( U can see there driveway on the other side of my car in my Avi ) . There Mustang and Ford truck cushioned the blow . It missed the Vette and the wife's Trailblazer by about a Foot 
. . It totaled the neighbors truck and smashed up the stang Pretty good but that will be fixable . Nobody was hurt 2 bad 
the driver got out with only a broken thumb and the neighbor was a bit shaken up ( He was working in the front yard when the car came through ) .
I knew those Mustangs we're good for something

Damn that's a helluva way to wake up.
When that happened to me, I woke up just in time to enjoy spinning donuts at 70mph. That was quite exhillirating!
