After the near accident I had yesterday im thinking about changing my board name to "BENCRAPPING". 
I hopped into my 1984 Ford F250 4x4 yesterday to go get my last two treestands. I turned onto the paved road and headed for my hunting area. I was cruising along at 55mph when all of a sudden I lost control of my streering. At first the truck drifted into the oncoming lane sending two other trucks onto the shoulder. I then managed somehow to get the truck back to the right and onto the shoulder. I slid another150 ft. before I the truck came to a stop about 15ft. from a 4ft. deep ditch.
The passenger side tie rod had popped off.
I managed to pop it back on and tied it with an old bowstring that I had in my bow kit. I crept along and made it back home safely.
Im selling the truck. First $1000 takes it.
