[QUOTE="Bowhunter1661, post: 392805, member: 9937"] "On another note for another thread, did I ever tell you the story of jumping out of my truck at the ramp to unhook my boat and how I forgot to put it in park in my excitement to get on the water?" Jim, not sure I have heard that one. I know I have seen photos of others doing it and the subsequent sinking of their truck! Anytime I back down a ramp it is a ritual for me to always first stop, apply the parking brake, then put the truck in park. If anyone knows a thing or two about an automatic transmission you know exactly what holds your beloved truck and boat on the incline of a ramp. Only a small parking pawl! That not a risk I am willing to take. Wether I have insurance or not lol [/QUOTE]
