vehicle accident self-extraction - the OEF_VET way

Well, I would have stopped the fight, but I was just laughing too hard at the both of you. I really don't know which one of the two of you had more fun. I would call it a draw.

OEF_VET, you didn't have the car's radio on at the time, did you?

Thinking about that damned song that's getting way to much airplay, "Jesus Take the Wheel", by that ditzy bimbo who doesn't know how to countersteer...

We were not allowed to do such fun things in NJ, thats why I left. Now I can free my car my own dang way

Reminds me (just a tad) of the time I got my car stuck in the sand on a beach in Long Beach. Ca. Sorry, no guns involved though. I had just gone off the pavement and got buried right away. The life guard in the Jeep refused to pull me out in an attempt to "teach me a lesson" (his words). Well after he drove off I noticed this sand fence nearby that was made of something like 2' x 8' corrugated steel sheets. So I got me a pair of pliers out, undid the wire fasteners on one sheet and used it under the drive tire to get myself back out. I had seen something like that done in an old war movie where they had to lay down similar sheets on the desert sand to get the trucks where they were going. Worked like a charm. And, just for the record, I DID replace the sheet on the fence so it was good as new when I was done. We didn't want all that sand escaping...

PS... Glad you're OK!
