Exclamation New Lightning, new warrenty claim

I have had some troubles lately with my truck blowing the spark out under full boost ( hint,hint). ... So I put in some NGK TR6's and took the truck out for a test run and the truck came home on a flat bed.

I nailed the truck from the 20 mph roll and broke the driveshaft in half, I broke the u-joint assembly off the rearend, I caved in the ENTIRE fuel tank & trashed my new exhaust. I hope better days are to come....

I know the feeling? I am guessing you did not have a driveshaft loop. Mine SAVED MY A$$ when I broke my shaft!
