[QUOTE="Ned Ward, post: 15456, member: 100"] Re: Cars in Snow ahh... reminds me of my first 270º in Chatham NJ on Christmas Day, 1982, running from our house to my Grandparents house. Spun out bigtime on a nice open page of road, no damage to dad's car (I was 2 years away from getting my license) Fast forward to 1985, driving home from a friend's house in my 71 CJ5 with a Meyer plow on the front - even angled, it sticks out a bunch, so to avoid hitting oncoming traffic on a narrow lane, I was hugging the right side. Plow tip caught on side of the embankment, and in slow mo we rode up and then tipped over. My sister and I got out of the car, now on its side. Police came to ensure we were OK, and then we got 10 people to lift up the Jeep back on to its wheels and we drove off. Went to a metalworking shop the next day as my plow A-arm was bent; they cut it off with a torch, reset it straight and rewelded it for $25. Not a bad cost for tipping over your car. [/QUOTE]
