Default A little fun in the snow (vid)

We had a 45 minute break between classes so I decided to be dumb. I just got a new camera so I had to try it out.



Then I decided to conquer the snowbank in the middle of the parking lot. Unfortunately the snow bank wasn't very soft due to the 50* weather we had a few days ago, so the bank turned into a giant ice wall. I probably should have checked that before trying to drive through it...



It didn't go very smoothly, but it was fun! The university event photographer happened to be walking by and snapped a few pics. I guess me and my truck are going to be in the next student news letter. Shoveling just wasn't cutting it so I ended up getting pulled out by a garbage truck.

That is really cool, but it blows that you got stuck.

On a different note, your truck is amazingly clean. My truck has rust all along the rockers and cab corners.

He tried to back up the bank and that would have put him into the parking lot. I still agree with the retard thing though!

so I'm guessing that this snow bank was on an island between two parking lots? I still don't understand why someone would do this? Think of all the **** that could be screwed up under your truck!! What if the snow was soft and there was a concrete parking block sticking up through the snow pile that just so happened to punch a hole through your gas tank.. or tranny.. ect... dumb dumb dumb!
