    Been there. Done that. I was on the shoulder of a bridge though. Spun out and put it on the side which high centered it. Even in 4lo and locked it didn't budge. Spent 20 minutes with my emergency shovel digging out underneath it. By the time I was done, a guy in his work truck finally stopped to help me.

    Funny that we got more farther south........about 8 inches in Flowery Branch. Not much for the northerners I'm sure but only the 2nd time in my life I've seen that much.

    Wife's car outside while the Taco gets the garage? :bowdown::anonymous:


    I didn't have my Taco yet but here's my Ram in that snow.

    I shit you not last week I sat there sprawled out across my hood with a jacket on so all the quarter sized hail would hit me on the back rather than my hood (I also put a cardboard box I found over the roof to kinda protect it) The things I do for my truck... :eek: Didn't think to take a pic while I was being pounded by ice.

    I got a couple pics of some snow though...

    This one's hard to tell the depth because of all the drifting... but I think the official total was about 24". This was right after the new Wrangler Radials were put on and I was amazed by how well my 1 wheel wonder did

    2011-02-02_08-57-45_721_fb976bd71f7bea061eeb89ed21a068bd22de37fe.jpg

    That drift you see starting in the front is actually all the way up the hood on the pass. side, I just didn't want to walk over there without snow boots on to take the pic.

    Here's one for the "bonus points" (I think I get double, it was at night)
