Southbound I-93, northern NH Sat 4:10 PM, cruising with traffic 58 mph 2005 F-350 6.0 Stroker on black ice (same as many times before in my 39 years of driving this road). Grade increases slightly rearend breaks loose, I'm taking out guardrail and trees like my 411 discbine goes through hay in june, but I don't seem to be slowing much, probably because I'm going down grade.Obviously I'm not going to survive this so I reconciled myself to death and just hoped that it would be quick. Just the same though I pushed myself down and back into the seat by pushing against the steering wheel. Soon I sensed that stroker and I were freefalling as I had gone off the edge of the gorge,at least now I was certain of a quick death. After about four seconds of falling I got several jolts then a slam from the left rear and stroker my wild ride was over. We came to rest upside down facing the way that we had come,and as you may have guessed I am still alive. not only still alive but unhurt except for a skinned knuckle, a pulled back muscle, and a bruise over my right eye that turned into a racoon eye this morning.I conclude a few things from this experience: first 150lbs is not enough traction weight in the back with the power of the stroker up front. second; always wear your seatbelt. third but foremost never leave home without Christ. Obviously my savior has work left for me here on Earth. And this brings me to a question. I wanted to put "pulling for Christ" on the side of my pullig tractor a few years ago but my wife said not to because since I do fairly well with it, it means that I must be cheating, so of course I would not be a good Christian witness. What do you think?

Today's Featured Article - History of the Nuffield Tractor - by Anthony West. The Nuffield tractor story started in early 1945.
