Ok, technically, it's "Random pics you took yourself," but it's pretty stinkin' random. Anyone know where it is?

Driveline Vibration Issue - Possible Root Cause

This guy ran over a mattress and decided to keep going. The ensuing jumble finally whipped around enough to put a tear in the gas tank, the subsequent lack of fuel is what finally brought this vehicle to its knees.

It had still managed to drive 30 more miles decently with a 60lb tangle wrapped around the driveshaft.

This genius complained that the vehicle had a "shimmy" when driving it high speeds.


This is what the dealership found..............

its actually more common than you think to see stuff wrapped around driveshafts, but its usually old tires.
