well, i lost one of my best friends this weekend. we're not to sure of all the details but he was in a car fire, it was on the news you might of seen it.
i know it's a one of the things we have to keep in our rigs for trails rides but it's important to check out your fire safety stuff and it's probably a good idea to keep a fire extinguisher in your other cars also. there's also safety hammer you can get that cut belts and smash windows they'd make good stocking stuffer for holidays gifts.
you never know when you'll need something to save your own life or even save another persons life, small things like those would help make saving yourself or other a billion times easyer.
keep it safe guys.
Hunter.

thanks guys. my whole circle of friends is taking it pretty hard, it just seems so unreal. I've had other friends pass on but none of them hit us like this. my friend was a good guy and had his head on straight was planning on marrying of of our other long time friend and she just so devastated. www.metrowestdailynews.com/homepage/8999365732256195583'"They found a fully engulfed vehicle that did not appear to have been in an accident but seemed to have been burning for a while before rescuers arrived." he might of been drinking or just broke down, he was driving a friends car. minutes from his home, he could of walked if he broke down and he didn't try to call anyone for a ride the LEO's are handling it real professional looking at all the possibility's. i personally don't drink, the last time i even touched beer was with the TWD crew after a job, so a long time ago. i know how responsible you guys are with drinking but keep it in mind the next time you tip a few back with friends and make sure everyone cool to drive before they bounce.

Sorry to hear hunter.
On a positive note, that safety tool and an emergency road-side kit was the first think I put in the girls car. She hats it because the kit is ugly and the tool take up space in her glove box, but I don't care. I'd rather be safe and ugly.
