Well.. last night was really WRONG!!! (Full details and pics in my weblog) The wife thought it may save some time to put the truck in the garage without actually getting IN the truck.
She smashed her right knee and the truck and garage don't look that good either.
She spent the morning in the hospital and will be fine. A couple of thoughts do come to mind...
1. Always drive from INSIDE the vehicle.
2. A 2.5 ton 4x4 WILL win all events against a 110 pound Mexican.
3. Prayer is a GOOD thing! Having a brother that owns his own body shop is rather priceless.

Dude!
Sorry you had trouble, hope the wife is OK. I am sure she's going to have a limp for a while!

Thanks Ray.. I still don't know how she did it, but it seems she had the door open when it backed up with her outside.. when she dropped it into drive, the truck smashed into the end of the garage... only minor damage to everybody...

Ouch!

Glad to hear nothing serious came of it.

Thanks Mox ..
Sometimes we learn things the hard way.. I guess as long as we don't do the same thing twice..
