The other Day My friend Mike was giving me a ride home in his truck because my laser's registration needs to be renewed and Mikes GS-T no longer has brakes. Im going to mention now that its his mom's truck and it just had a new radiator put in it which was about $550. Anyways I live on a dirt road and mike usually drives fast down it in his car so he was going alittle fast in the truck too. Toward the end of the road there are some sharp corners and we were going a little fast, I said slow down a little, when I said this I wasn't afraid of going off the road I was afraid of another car coming. Well it turns out the Dakota didn't handle quite as well as DSM's do because the truck understeered and we slid head-on into a tree. Neither one of us was remotelly hurt but the truck was totaled. we were all like "SHIT!" within minutes the entire newipswich police force showed up along with the fire departement and an ambulence. (its a small town they have nothing else to do) They checked us over and asked us some questions and then let us go. Mike is now screwed because he got 2 tickets, one for speeding and one for not wearing a seatbelt, and on top of that he has to buy his mom a new truck! The moral of this story is if you have to drive fast then dont do it in a freaking truck. Buy a DSM
