    I specifically went out to Napa auto, and home depot before the snow storm struck yesterday.

    Bought tow straps, 2 tube-sands (over rear axle), a 60lbs bag of gravel, snow chains, scrap wood, and a E-Tool.

    Pulling out 4 stuck motorists, Priceless.

    Huzzah, a bomb-ass EPR bullet for community involvment.

    I was wondering how id pull him out because of the ground clearance, Nissan was pretty smart about this in the design. There's a hole at the bottom of the grill where you screw in a good sized I bolt, pretty nifty.

    Yes he got a good shot and video of me pulling him from the drivers seat lol
