Title: Stuck B4 I Even Left the House
Post by: HeadHunter on December 15, 2008, 08:17:12 AM
yup. Fired up the jeep, let er warm up. Go out in 10 to go to Timmies and open up the shop.... Make it 5 feet down the driveway and get stuck 1/2 on the street 1/2 on the sidewalk. Tried for 1/2 hour to get the heep moving one way or another... have to leave it like that till later today.

I dont have a front driveshaft and my rear left tire went flat overnight, so the inch of hard snow kicked my arse right in front of my house.  How embarrassing.

... almost considered winching it off the house... hmmmm...

both tires on the right side decided to spring massive leaks, leaving me running flat doing 360's all over the place. Had to refill twince... In fact, right in the middle of town, I was stuck sideways taking up both directional lanes of traffic, when this guy came out of no where on a quad and gave me a push.. WTF?!! But thanks buddy!! ;D

Try a 1/2 mile of foot deep hard packed snow for a driveway, I've ended up driving through the hay field the past week...guess I should see if one of the neighbors around here will plow it with there tractor for me.  :-\
