4x4 firebird...

i was bored 2 day and me and my friend decided to wash our cars. he told my 2 park my car on his lawn and hed do the same with his ranger (hose was short and this was easier) so we washed em and mine looked great (we used fire engine cleaner, lol, his brother in law is a fire fighter) he drove his off the lawn. i went to move mine and noticed when i put it in gear and tapped the gas it started 2 sink!! (its been flooding here in south nj. ground was saturated, i forgot) it kept goin and goin untill my passenger side door was an inch from the ground and i was about 2 inches in the ground. tires were caked. so..we got his uncle to get me out by tying a rope around the frame on the rounded triangle looking piece under the alterantor. we got it out easily, i spent the rest of the day cleaning the back end of the car...... poor firebird. i feel bad for it.

i had my camaro do that one time we were all getting wasted on new years and a fight broke out at my cousins house, and cops were called needless to say us being minors at the time we were gonna whip down the road to my house but someone had blocked us in. So we decided to go for it in the camaro lol in the snow down a hill. I think if i would have had posi i'd have got out. But instead buried it up to the bottom of the Iroc decal....

hey i was 17 and the cops were coming. Underage consumption and contributing to the delinquency of a minor on his dad. We got it out later that night just by pushing and the floormat trick over and over again. They towed the 2 girls cars that got into it also. Which I'm also glad you couldn't see my car, it's behind the house. That was the stupidest thing I've ever done. What's bad is the sober guy got it stuck..... He also got his 99/00 Silverado stuck with 4 wheel drive..... I know you all did dumb stuff when you were young to you can't even deny that. Hell some people still do dumb stuff even though they are older

nope never drove drunk unless you consider being pissed and trying to drive the car out of it after he got it stuck. i just had poor judgement and agreed when he said you think we'll make it. i've seen way to many peoples lives screwed by drunk drivers and also "impaired"drivers my buddies dad got 4 years in prison for hitting someone while he was on prescription medicine... it said do not operate machinery....
