On the edge of the municipal campground Grande Cache Alberta.
The painting must have been there at least for months in the doorway of this abandoned shed with nobody taking care of it. I would have asked the campground host about it but we had to leave early in the morning before she was back in the office.

Oh, yes... I think we've seen this posted word for word before ---- except the gloves are not always leather!

On the next XLT trim level up, it comes with a backup camera, but someone didn’t want to spend that much

This one has it - it is a Limited - driver blacked out while backing up to load vehicle and had foot on the gas pedal - camera warning system probably said STOP and then WTH this is gonna hurt ☹️
Driver is a very close long time friend of family - we always tease each other “go till it hits” when it starts beeping [emoji6]

Friend of mine went thru several tailgates on his truck causing someone to place a bumper sticker on his rear bumper stating “CAUTION - Backs By Feel”

The voltage input was set at 600 vdc at 2000 amps with no load. When a work load was applied the voltage would drop while the amps increased up to 5000 amps. The slowest I recall those motors turning while pulling max amps was 50 rpm. At some point above 5000 amps the motors would stall.
These motors were controlled by Siemens SIMOREG CM 6RA70 Series Control Module for Variable-Speed DC Drives. The motor speed could be changed on the fly by increasing the dc voltage setting in the programming parameters using Siemens DriveMonitor on a laptop.

I clearly stated "ac induction motors". DC motors are a whole different animal

Poor person, hard not to make light of the situation though.

I wonder if the beep sensors ever warned them. The 5er is high enough it may not have ever registered even after he hit it. It's going to make me check how well mine works. No excuse for the camera though. GOAL even without the trailer I guess.

We just happen to have one of the Aspen Classics. Had lots of fun for about six years. Things changed at our house, now we use the Shockwave and ride a Polaris RZR. Not much for M/C's anymore.
This got me to thinking maybe we should sell it. Haven't used it but twice since 2015. Life does change!

Well I know you're not talking about me because you made no mention of the guy eating a P&J sandwich at the same time.

The resident Elk Herd at Dosewallips State Park in WA State makes their morning pass-through at 7:30 am. According to the Ranger, it's their park and everyone else is just a guest. As long as you don't bother them, they won't bother you. They graze for about an hour, then move on.
