Yeah...I saw a semi jack knifed in a ditch with the driver outside inspecting, I immediately slowed down (was literally only doing 60) and even then it still did a Lil zig-zag. I called it a night right then and there, currently in a hotel right now.
Theres plugs here thankfully, unfortunately though, there are none that are available.
Bought this for the 6.2 btw. Is it a good one? Room short? Didn't even open it yet so if its not a decent one, lmk and ill replace.
