I've had it happen. Luckily the other guy or gal didn't swerve to the shoulder as I did to get out of the way. It's a pisser. But the fact it wasn't a full frontal collision...shit, CK would be dead.hambone wrote:I can't imagine how it was driving along peacefully enjoying the evening then seeing headlights coming for you in your lane...

Man, that car had a Presence.
I am at a Starbucks here outside of Blue Springs MO with this non-descript Dodge Caravan, and not ten minutes ago, the barrista said "where is your beautiful VW?"
I looked at her utterly stupidly and pained. "You remember?"
Can you believe it?

I was at the Dead show this spring in Greensboro and this stranger walks up to me and goes, "Great Bus man," I looked at him perplexed and he said he saw me driving it on I-40 going to the show....People notice nice VW buses these days!
Take care,
Rick

The Bus was, and the shorts are, part of the Colin persona. A Caravan is just not going to cut it. A Eurovan, at least???
