Today i was goofing around in the parking lot at work and decided to try and break through this snow bank, i couldnt get through and my rear tires were on a sheet of ice. One of the guys I work with got his S-10 stuck in a snowbank on the other side of the lot. When i got stuck I thought no big deal he can pull me out, then he runs over saying he is stuck too. I sell auto parts so there was no shortage of guys in their plow trucks willing to pull us out. But i really see why you guys call the front bumpers shovels, i have so much snow in there no you cant see the ground from the top of the motor!

Looks freshly plowed, I once got a nissan sentra to claw up a 9 foot snowbank and earned major credit at my high school. the trick is to wait a day, if you can't idle up it nice and slow in 4Lo, try airing down your tires first. Yes I put too much thought into clawing up snowbanks but that's because I spend too much time in a Jeep.

I used to park my AMC eagle on top of snowbanks at UMD because there were no open parking spots except the ones covered by snow... I've got a pic of it somewhere around here... :lol:
