My SHO started to overheat on me once because I blew a coolant hose - before the temp gauge was 3/4 of the way to red I killed the engine and let it coast for a half mile in neutral to help it cool off. Total repair cost: $7 and 20 minutes of time. Had I driven it for 2 more miles, I have no doubt it would have seriously overheated and possibly needed a new engine.
Don't get me wrong Lee, I have a ton of sympathy for your shitty day and the fact that your truck broke, I just don't have sympathy that you drove it till you killed it - I know you know better than to do it, but you did it anyway.
On a lighter note, watching a radiator pop is cool as hell 8) - saw it happen once in a parking lot at JMU to a girl who was waiting for a spot to open up. She jumped out after it happened, hysterical, going "OMG, my car just BLEW UP, OMG".
Why do people just post what they are thinking? Without thinking.
