Good one's #1! I'm more of an overheat and spun bearing guy myself.
Passed a Semi 15 miles out of the nearest town on HWY 395, '94 S10 Blazer. Well we were going semi slow, upon throttle input, it kicked down into first, ooh didn't want that. Worked hard around the Semi, the oil pressure went to Zero. When the Semi passed us back, (Didn't take long!) The wifey wakes up.
"Why are we going so slow? And WHAT is that sound? (2 syllable what!!)
"Well, That, my dear, is the sound of mechanical failure...
"Well, aren't you gonna stop?"
"Ahh no. It's 110 degrees outside, the motor is already toast. Were driving straight to the nearest U-Haul in the AC Honey."
Kept it running. When the U-Haul truck and trailer were ready, Nursing it up onto the trailer. It protested heavily. "Quit Resisting!" (Stabs throttle!)
Finally made it up into position on the trailer just as the motor ahh, quit.
Good Times!!
