    Default SUV In the Trinity, Anyone know about this?

    This was sent to me today, I think it is a local guide, I cannot get him on the phone.

    Just saw it on FB a few minutes ago. Sucks this happened but have to be honest I did chuckle a little haha.

    From what I read he forgot the e brake off while launching or while loading the boat up.

    I have had my truck slide down gravel this year and jack knife my trailer and truck. It could have broken my legs if I was standing on the side it jack knifed. The person that owns this rig could have been injured badly or killed. Not funny at all, and yes he is a local guide that works his ass off for his clients and friends on his boat!

    Karma sucks!

    I did find out about this and called his wife. He is fine, no injuries, all will be or has been salvaged. Good news is that he is ok and I wish him the best of luck and thoughts, well wishes go out to him and his family.

    Lance if you're responding to me. Well I don't believe in karma. As for funny never said it was. I said I chuckled at the pic. Third you plain and simple need to make sure you know what you are doing. Heck a tank you would say could go through about anything but even they can get ruined if things are done without much thought. If it's wet and gravel I would not advise to launch unless you really know what you are doing.

    Either way like is said yes sucks it happened!! I guess typing on forums sometimes sucks not being able to quite understand statements to the full extent.

    Whoa! Glad everyone's alright, that could lead to some hefty fines?

    Really about the fines? I guess contaminating water?

    I believe Lance was referring to the fact that such a hard-working and nice guy of a guide... would have something so shitty happen to him.

    In this scenario, either Karma sucks or perhaps like you, he does not believe in it...

    If it were meant for you Aron, I think, "Karma is a Bitch" rather than "Karma sucks" would have been used...

    I've met Lance and he's a cool dude~

    and you're a cool dude too.

    and I believe in Karma but sometimes we don't know how/why it does what it does (yet anyway)
