Too Much Speed
Earlier this week I did an install in Gila Bend, AZ for Luke Air Force base. After doing an install of the Pronto4 we took it to their test range to test. We had limited time on the range and at the end of the time the vehicle was not performing well enough so we moved the test onto the uncontrolled access road to the range. During one of the runs at 30-35 mph the vehicle began to swerve off to the left of the road and I hit the brakes, switched to manual mode and tried to steer back onto the road. Too late. The vehicle slid off into the culvert and then slowly turned onto its side. As it urned the spare tire slid from the back and broke the rear passenger window. I had plenty of time to brace myself as I went sideways. The vehicle came to stop and I turned off the engine.
No one was around so I climbed out of the window and jumped down to the road.
I.
Was.
Ticked.
Yeah... I overturned the customers blazer. I then saw this painted on the underside of the Blazer.
Someone, a long time ago, painted it as a joke.
We flipped the vehicle over, filled the tires back up and I drove it back to the garage. We checked it over and nothing was damaged besides the window that was broken. Later I noticed someone added this helpful suggestion to the vehicle.

Thanks for the tip.
