    Doing 65 mph southbound on the Taconic State parkway the other morning and a frigging giant eagle either a female Bald eagle or a Golden Eagle is flying directly at me .Wingspan just ridiculous, wider than my lane ! No biggie I think to myself , he will continue to rise and fly over me . Nope , suicidal bird just kept coming ! So I quickly check the left lane and swerve hard at 65 mph , no problem miss the eagle and just swerved back into my lane . Holy shit , did that just happen ? This is praise for my new suspension . Tires never made a sound and truck handled perfect , just continued on my way . PHeeew ! 6112s on top notch . TC UCAs .5125 bilstein in rear 2" AAL . New Falken Wildpeaks AT/3s . :amen:
