GOD is my hero!!! must read!
OK! Yesterday I make arrangements with Jerrell (MY1STCAMARO) to do a light swap, only I didn't know this day was going to be one that I never forget! 4 hours trip you think is going to be a nice trip, unfortunately 1/2 way a winter storm was waiting for me... In the beginning everything was ok... The car was handling good, until I get to HW 15!!!! 71 miles of pure nightmare!!! My 1st breathtaking moment was when going downhill the SUV in front of me decide to do a quickstop! I downshift and try to press brake slowly but I was to close already! So natural instinct switch lanes but with snow under not a good idea!!! A quick 360 make think I'm done! But GOD have another plan! By GOD's hand my car did the 360 ending on the right lane complete straight!!! After this found myself going on a small hill with a 53 foot trailer on my left, when I'm passing the trailer back wheels start to slide my way! I'm trying to move the car away from the trailer and my car star to slide too!!! I saw myself under that trailer! Again that was not GOD will! Some how the car straight up and I manage to pass it! After that GOD decide that it was enough punishment and a nice rain clean up the road... After all this I spend 3 hours doing the swap... It should take me like one but with the rain, fingers numb and darkness was not easy! Finally I made it home but this day is going to stay in me forever! At the end I praise God for be by my side!!!

Jeez man....the big man HAD to be watching out for you. Grace has saved this mans life many times. I've tempted his will too many times coming out unscathed but certainly grateful. This story ends happily. Unlike many. |

Or are you saying that there are just more Mustang drivers that dont believe in the power of the one and only creator god Zues, and therefore did not receive his divine protection?

I'm just point out that the Camaro handle better than Mustang or is that Camaro's owner don't drive their car in the snow... About my believe that God was involved in my situation is because I know I'm a decent driver but there's no way I get out of situation by my skills... I'm just feel the need to share what happen with you guys... Sorry if I offend someone with my story....
