Matt, was that the same incident where your car started sinking into the hot pavement when it was on the crappy screw jack? I'm pretty sure that was way back in the ROWF days!
Yeah, pretty much, that was the time. Just bad luck, a cone cracked that metal stem right off. Then, hilarity followed that.
