Kinda a crazy story instead
About 6-7yrs My dad was driving a 4 door long box duramax with a 30th enclosed trailer. Going up and down mountains in North Carolina. Hit a patch of black ice on the top. Right went into the ditch split the receiver hooked to the trailer like a banana and My dad had to run the truck a ways offroad.
Spare receiver caught air, took out the whole back window. My uncle woke from sleeping in the back and sat up. Receiver hit his back. If it wasn't for hitting him in the back it would have hit the driver head rest and mostly lifeline killed my dad on impact. Lost %90 percent of tools. A few months later found a screwdriver in the engine department when looking for a rattle that the screw driver was making. Lost the trailer because every trip back their from Michigan was too dark so the repo company wouldn't release it. My uncle still has Back problems
