After a quick change of the underwear, I thought I might tell of today's experience. I just spent two days going 1000 miles in rain, rain, with some rain. I noticed this goofy looking cloud only 30 feet off the ground right over the truck....looked for a fire...maybe fog?????....NO it was a tornado forming right over my head. Visibility went to about 30 feet and the water on the highway started to rise rapidly. After I waded through the water (without choice) I noticed the truck getting much louder. Yes you guessed it, the exhaust is no longer attached. A local guy here in Dallas said to put a "band clamp" over the two pieces and it would hold for a while. Anyone have experience or advice on this subject?

Thankful for being alive

Doc Weaver
