well i almost killed myself on Christmas morning

[bigd65]

i was driving home from work Christmas morning and was traveling about 75 mph. i heard a loud pop and the back tires locked up. well that made it start fish tailing and before you know it, i was headed backwards across the northbound traffic. i watched a mail box go by as i entered the ditch (backards) on the opposite side of the road. the truck finally came to a rest about 6 feet from a culvert as i slid sideways down the ditchline. if the truck didnt slow down and would have hit the culvert i would have been dead. eeewww i dont even wanna think about that. anyways, NOT A MARK ON THE GHOST. anytway i think the tranny locked up. when i started it (yep the GHOST still started) it had a clanking noise, i dont know what is broken, flywhel , torque converter etc... but it is at the shop that rebuilt the tranny. i initially thought it was the readend but when it was towed out of the ditch, the tires still rolled and when it started it clanked, so im not real sure what it it. BTW when i got out of the truck, my first words were "THANK YOU GOD". i told my wife the GHOST saved me but she didnt believe me she also said it was GOD. well im still alive today
