I had Homer Simpson moment today.
I had to replace the tailgate window motor in my 4 runner. I had the regulator unit sitting on the bench while waiting for a new motor to arrive and of course it was spring loaded and was being held together by a 1/4 bolt.
I knocked if off the bench and it exploded into many many pieces. It took me 2 hours to find all the parts and figure out how it all went back together. Note to self take pictures of things just in case.

I find myself using my phone camera more and more for just that reason. Not sure how I did things before I had a phone camera !!

I was driving on the freeway headed towards New Orleans yesterday, I smoked a buzzard with my rental car. Got lucky it didn't hit the windshield, it caved in the grill and the radiator was shoved back.

Nope I always get the insurance option when I rent. You just walk away no report no questions no problems well worth $20 a day. 4 out of 10 drivers in Florida either do not have a valid drivers license and or insurance coverage. The dang jeep was overheating every dash light was on it was smoking when I grabbed my luggage out of the back seat. Trouble free motoring.
