Your like the Les Stroud of jeep video. - Lug the camera up the trail, walk back to the jeep, film the jeep running past the camera, go back and get the camera....Sounds like something I would do too lol. Great videos! We only got a light dusting from that last one in the Richmond area. I came out from work this morning to find the jeep encrusted in ice that came from the steam from the mill I work at being pushed down into the parking lot all night by the wind. I looked like a blue Popsicle going down 95 this morning.

was listening to for the love of the game - pillar when i watched those, meshed up quite well

Get out there thrash it and love it

stuck in snow? it's called a shovel or your hands

just sucks worse than sand since it's cold haha

looked like your stock LSD was working decently, mine has quit working on anything more viscous than slush/ice

In NJ we got about 2 and a half feet yesterday. I went out and did the same thing.... but I wasnt so lucky. I got stuck. My friend had to push but that wasnt much help. After 5 minutes or so of spinning tires, I got some traction and got the hell out of there.

Lookin good!! I love rallying through fresh snow like that up here in Tahoe. Too bad it hasn't snowed in 29 days. :juggle: The self filming with the tripod sounds like something I would do too. 8)

Glad I am not alone in running around with a tripod...filming myself driving by :mrgreen:

@luigi1285 - i carry a shovel in case I get stuck...and hey after all this is fairly populated Massachusetts not Alaska :wink: you would surely run into someone after a few hours of walking for help.

Thanks - yeah deep snow traction is really great with those Goodyear Silent Armors.

This is not my drive.This was me going to our sub station. Up a un-plowed hill. My morning drive to work looked like this.It took me 3 routes and about 1 hour for what should have been a 9 mile ride.
