Thank God I Was In The Truck

[alienman]

So here it is... I am taking my little guy to the toboganing hill and we are traveling down the back road to get there... this guy in a sunfire comes to the crossroads and doesn't look like he is gonna stop in time so i move over a bit and BOOM i catch a little drift and it throws my truck into a spin...Felt like we were gonna land on the roof... Luckily the road was pure ice and the tires never caught. When all the snow settled we were so burried on the one side i had to climb out through the window to start diggin.... took me about 45 minutes to dig myself out. Good thing i always have a shovel with me... Not one other car came down that road the whole time i was there....My little guy thought it was great... i was almost scraping out my shorts after it.... here are some quick pics i snapped....Had we been in the elantra I think there would have been a tonne of damage as all that snow was the hard stuff the grader had been piling over the winter...

damn dude that sucks!! yeah forget about it...if you were in the elantra you would have easily needed to replace the front half of your car!....got say there is somethign cool about spinning on ice...

all other butthole drives should have their licenses revoked!! the guy or girl didnt even stop to see if you were ok???

[alienman]

The guy stops rolls down the window and says "are you guys alright?" I say ya we are ok. Then he goes "alright", rolls up his window and is gone down the road, didn't offer to push or nuthing...

I think what saved your life is all the rust!

Ha, kidding, glad you are ok and the little one enjoyed it.

CRAZY! It is a good thing that you were in the truck. Although, I must say that from your signature I was thinking your truck was just a permanent fixture of that lake/large puddle that it seems to be in. Glad to hear that you guys are ok, and I'm also glad to know that no matter how much of a slight variation someone might make on having to check if they crapped their pants, it still makes me laugh to hear an even slightly new one.

now we're just waiting on bob to chime in with his truck haha

[Seinster]

Wow! The hazards of snow driving eh?!
Glad you're both OK and weren't injured!
Cheers!!!

The worst thing that can happen to someone while driving down here are senior citizens!!

good to hear no one got hurt, i went in a ditch with my truck once....as i waited for someone to pull me out, i saw a person slide into the stop sign, and another through the intersection
