In a picture recently discovered by our editorial team at Big Bend Times Dot Org, a shocking fact was discovered. Publisher of smear site bigbendtimes.com, David Flash, traveled to the interior of Big Bend Ranch State Park in a passenger car that is not safe to operate in such rugged conditions. In the picture below one can see uniformed TPWD employees posing for a picture that Flash posted to his smear site. In this picture we can see the hood of Flash’s vehicle:
If we compare that to the picture Flash regularly posts to his smear sites, we can get a better view of the vehicle:
In that second picture above one can clearly see a low profile, passenger tire on a vehicle with very little suspension travel. Thorns on a mesquite tree branch, or the tip of a blue agave leaf, or many other things in the desert can penetrate those tires instantly. This vehicle is not appropriate for the main road in BBRSP, let alone any of the more extreme roads. When someone enters the park with inappropriate gear they put themselves, and the people who respond when they need assistance, at great risk. Luckily people like State Park Police Officer Jacob Barton are there when people are in need.
There’s an excellent repost of someone else’s content at bigbendtimes.com that sums up nicely what this editorial team thinks of someone who drives a car with passenger tires in BBRSP:
This all paints a picture of careless person who has no problem putting himself and others at great risk. We don’t know how many other people or pets may have been in the car with Flash that day, or if they survived. Toyota has been a sponsor of TPWD since 2002 and they offer a number of vehicles that can handle every last mile of the intense and exciting roads in Big Bend Ranch State Park. Don’t be an a$$ clown.
