[QUOTE="wornoutupser, post: 243814, member: 2196"] One of the old Ford P-5's almost killed me--twice. The first time I was doing 55 on the highway and the front wheel,tire,brake and caliper went BANG and flew off the vehicle. The spindle had broken in half. Have you ever put a P-5 down at 55 MPH on three wheels? The next time was the same car about a year later. I was less than a mile from the building heading in when BANG! The pinion came off in the rear end,instantly locking the back tires together. That was one heck of a skid down the road! UPS was mad because the skid ate a brand new set of Michelins off during the skid. They tried to give me a warning letter for that! UPS can not understand why I am scared to drive a P-5! [/QUOTE]
