For 2nd palm the knob to the right.
For 5th palm it to the left as much as possible.
My wife is worried about my truck flipping around the corners.
I told her only if I slide into the curb.
Oh yeah I am having fun.:biggrin:

Well I have seen pictures of X-Runners flipped. In fact there are some that are on here, so just be careful. ;)

Yea, but the X-Runner won't flip on solid ground. They'll flip if there are other factors that'll help it along. My first car flipped, when the rear end started to climb a hill, when I was spinning out. My second car, when it was sliding sideways, the tires hooked the dirt, and flipped.

WOW.

If you are losing lateral acceleration and feel a slip, let off the gas.
I have come around some pretty tough small u-turns, and started accelerating at the apex, and haven't had any problems as of yet. I feel in control the whole time. 2nd Gear is a good friend. I made my wife almost take a dump in her pants though. Good thing, there are some strong OH-SH*T handles in the truck.

It was actually in the rain.
:laugh:

We live in Texas and it's been raining aplenty.
Going on Highway 190 through Temple, and I got off at the exit that takes you back around to the Stratford Inn, there is a U-TURN.

It was great.
