vibe engulfs in flames

Post by keithvibe »

They reported it as a mini van. But it's a vibe or what looks like it was a vibe.http://wfmz.com/view/?id=1223760I wonder why.

Bc they filled the bong with moonshine instead of water. Teach them not to toke and drive anymore.

The video froze on me, and there is no way to click to enlarge the pic. Maybe there is a pic on another channel's website, or the newspaper's website?

Or a truck... people still don't believe me when a tell them that I moved a full 60"x32"x21" bath, a two-piece toilet, a sink with all accessories that come with these and I still managed to close my hatch with a little bit to spare Yes I had to move my driver seat a little to the front but it wasn't too uncomfortable to drive
