I still want to know how you lose control of an all wheel drive car going down the freeway. Bag of peanuts? Cell phone? Chick flashing ***** through window of minivan? Nobuteru Taniguchi imitation? Awesome pics though. Lucky there were no solid vertical objects around.

Hi,

A few of your post refer to "know what you type". Please review what you type and keep your comments on topic and less confrontational. Thanks.

Well, the poster said they were on the I-15 going to Vegas this weekend.

It was pouring **** rain all over so my guess would be he hit a big wet area, lost control, went off the road, blew up his rim, called the tow truck.

Again, for everyone wondering how he could have lost control on the open freeway, it was raining all weekend out here.

You need to learn what's appropriate!! I hope that my car never spontaneously folds in half (jacknifes) while I'm driving down the highway. Yowza

Yeah I know. I've been driving around in this freaking rain all week. The Evo is rock solid on most any surface. Grooved. Smooth. Potholed. It's not like Interstates are full of sharp corners. I was just curious.

Lucky no one was hurt.
