Had a similar incident in my front yard several years ago. Woman in a SUV crossed the center line, well off the road, went down through a couple rows of trees lining a very old roadbed before taking a sharp turn back toward the road and became stuck between a few trees. Off-duty cop coming the other direction witnessed it and got there shortly before we did. When we got there, she was still hitting the accelerator trying to drive out of it and he was reaching in to kill the ignition. The words of the first responding cop were, "How in the hell did this happen?"

She apparently had had a seizure and was released to her husband who showed up a half-hour later. Cops were totally unconcerned about her continuing to drive subsequently. I sometimes wonder how often I have passed her on the road since then

I had a professor in college that had that condition where he would doze off occasionally for up to ten seconds at a time, then wake up as if nothing happened. He would be in front of the class writing on the chalk board, stop, his head would droop down to his chest, then wake up and continue to write on the board, and giving his lecture.

I saw him driving around a few times.

So last weekend I did the fronts for my brand new Annex Suspension coilovers. Now this weekend I tried to install the rears. Passenger side went smooth as butter, I always make sure to blast all the bolts and nuts a day before to soak so they are easy to take off the next day.

However, the driverside bolt holding the damper will not come loose for anything. I tried a flamethrower, PB blaster multiple times, breaker bar, impact gun, and those sockets used to remove striped nuts and bolts

Here is the end result of my rage and agony

This could be a helpful resource, particularly at the end.

OMG that is nuts! I did manage to get it off with soaking in PB blaster, smacking it with a rubber mallet, a nut extractor socket and good ole bicep, shoulder and leg strength to get it off. That bolt is screwed though, had to order a new one because I didn't want to run the risk of putting the old one back on just to drive around with my new coilovers. I got rear camber arms and and lockout bolts coming anyways today.

Glad it came off, and that you enjoyed the story. Any story containing the line "a 6000 ft./lb. God descends to avenge the fallen" is worth reading lol

Take the nut off on the other side. The bolt head makes it more difficult because it has to spin inside the shock also.

Plasti-dipped the inside of the driver door prior to applying CCF soundproofing - otherwise it won't adhere.

I began the process today of removing all the previous stereo install to get it ready for a fresh install of new gear. I also got rid of the blank switches near the cup-holder and replaced that part with one of the 3D-printed 'cubbies' you can buy from eBay. Cheap little mod, but I like it.

...the stereo though...that's going to be an adventure.

Got in my car to go to work and the car won't turn over. Radio and whatnot comes on and you can hear the alternator but it never turns on. Tried the fobgina and tried another set of keys that wasn't the issue.

I'm worried that the radio and electronics work which leads me to believe it may not be the battery. Unless there isn't enough battery to start the car. Also the brake is locked and won't depress.

It'll be interesting to push my car out of the one car garage and up a slight incline that way I can jump it...

Sounds like your starter failed.
