Glad the deck hand had good aim with the life preserver. If not for him, the outcome would've been much worse.

Communication between line handlers aboard the container ship MSC Ilona and those at terminal 4 in the Port of Baltimore resulted in a pickup truck getting pulled right off the pier and into the harbor. The lineman on the pier put the tag line on the bumper of his truck to pull the line off the bollard. After it was removed from the bollard, he backed up to untie the line, however the mate on the container ship heaved around with the mooring winches before the lineman had a chance to unhook his truck.

I think it says two things. One the quality of Ford's bumpers and frames and how they are attached. Two the quality of line handlers I have to deal with on a daily basis.

Not a ford or a dually. Those are toyota wheels. I had a Tacoma back in the day with those OEM wheels....
