HAHA!! I don't remember hearing any birds chirping, but the crash bang and pop sound familiar.

Wow that sucks.... I didn't before.... My current gf, on our first date I wanted to "show off" with my dodge Ram, I had the front forks on a manual cable setup so I could throw it in 4 low but the power only goes to the rear wheels and not the front (great for doing burn outs) I started to smoke the tires up then all I heard was banging then nothing, then I heard something.... I looked out the Window to see my drive shaft actually rolling out from under the truck! Lol she was so impressed let me tell u lol
