It won't fit on the motorcycle.

I've been in the market for a medium sized tool chest so with a little time on my hands I decided to visit our local Lowe's store. To make a long story short, I found the chest I was looking for, bought it, then remembered I was riding my motorcycle. This could be a problem as I only had a couple bungee cords in my top bag and the box was bigger than I had imagined.

I tried to secure the box safely to the motorcycle, but it was simply too large. Just then I saw a friend of mine pulling into the parking lot in his Silverado pick up. I flagged him down and asked him for a favor, which he was willing to do, but only after some well deserved ribbing.

This impulse purchase worked out for me in the end , but without the help of this friend I would have been screwed.

I'm sure I am not the only one something like this has happened to. Tell us your story...
