Had a snow event at work today and the garbage truck got stuck sideways trying to back up after picking up a dumpster. Anyways it was blocking the entrance to our parking garage so one of my coworkers decided to hook his '78 Waggy up to the truck and start tugging. The waggy was rocking it but all 4 wheels were on hard packed snow. At this point I get the crazy idea to hook the '78 Chero to the '78 wag as the Chero was on dry pavement. 2 yanks and we were able to turn the truck a full 90* so it could back out of the driveway.

Sadly we didn't get any pix but the best part was both of our managers didn't think we'd be able to do it, and we did! Didn't break anything either, although my QT chain started to slip.:rolleyes:

What is this "snow" you speak of? I'm not familiar.

Snow on the ground down to around 9000 feet around here. Lizardhead Complex up near Telluride, Dolores area peaks, The Abajo and La Sal Mtns in Utah, the La Platas nearby... They are all nice and white today. :thumbsup: We had popcorn snow all around the park yesterday between 7000 and 8500 feet. It melted but the wind is ch-chilly today.

Pretty good job for polished turds huh Al? :lol: Go gitem Sean. :cool:

That would have been cool to see! I can't imagine somebody driving their Escalade, H2, Expedition, or some other "truck" attempt that. :thumbsup:

I went out to eat last night at Applebees. By the door there was a H2 that was on 26 inch rims that had one wheel up on the curb. I wish I had my camera tha caption would have been H2 Flexed out at Applebees.
