    I did in my old bronco a few years ago because that was the last time we got enough snow for there to be piles in the parking lots.

    ouch.... Got a link to that one?

    If I managed to get my prerunner up there it'd get stuck and I'd have to wait for the snow to melt to go home :D

    Not as big as your snow pile, but parked there a few days prior and it packed and melted since the 1st time.

    hah, dude, when I used to plow in the winters, we'd get the mounds 10-12ft high. Of course, the front end loaders help. Most places probably dont use them though.

    We have piles of snow all over around here. I've never scaled a mountain that big like OP did, but sometimes there's no parking left in the lots and you gotta squeeze into that parking spot that's halfway buried by a mountain of snow. I do it at work all the time since parking is so limited. I figure I'll leave the clear spots for the little cars that can't park on the side of a mountain of snow :)

    Not anymore. Once plowing thru a huge snowbank left by a plow @ the end of my driveway, I practically ripped the exhaust of my 95 Toy 4x4 from the cat back. You never know what is in that bank, lesson learned. Great Pic though :)

    Be careful not to leave the car like that for long.... I remember when I was a kid my uncle was plowing with an old Dodge, parked it like that with the plow down, and the next day it froze to the pile! My Dad tried to pull it out with a Cherokee - no luck, had to melt the snow to get it out. That was a sight, a truck attached to a Cherokee with all 8 wheels spinning but nothing moving! (Chain finally broke, so they gave up!)
