Well all this accident talk almost got me last night. I was following a team mate to downtown Stuttgart lastnight for a welcome back celebration for some buds who got back from the Stan and well let's just say parking garages suck here. He has a late model Patrol which is a little lower than my truck but not much so I followed him into a garage. Just as I made the blind turn into it I see a 1.6m clearance sign and hit the brakes. Unfortunately 4 germans pulled up on my arse and wouldn't back up any to ease my way out of the entrance. So I begin the 10 point turn to turn around. Turn 1 didn't work so well as I screwed up a light on the rack and nailed the jack handle squarely into the roof beam sending my rack and cross beams back a foot and a half. No serious damage other than the jack mount burying itself deep into the right rear plastic end cap on the factory rack. The one good thing is I found my shackles I stuffed up in the storage box as I could open it again after the accidental relocation.
