LOL-The best way to dig ur car out of snow!!

All the cars in my college parking lot got burried last night, luckily i scraped my car off at 11:00 last night so that the snow didn't freeze on top of it.

Here's how to get ur car out of 2 feet of snow.

Step 1.) Scrape your car.


Step 2.) Plan the best way to get ur car out.




Step 3.) Get a Bobcat - (i sure was luckey this morning!)





And thats all. (the first picture isnt my car, but its still funney)

R.O.F.L. Could you send that guy with the bobcat down to get my Accord out? Not only is this past snowfall on top of it but the past few others as well.

lol, i think the bobcat is now also stuck in the snow-j/k

I dont think bobcats get good enough gas milage or have a high enough top speed to use 91 south to get to your area .

If my car is having trouble in the snow, you must have it real tough. (since your car is 2 inches off the ground).

I haven't driven my Accord since about mid-Dec. I've been driving crashers. It's quite upsetting. Come on, Bobcat cat guy needs to come down here. We can give him backroad directions. Kidnap him. Come on.

LoL, the bobcat guy is off work now since the parking lot is already plowed. Plus, he would be hard to kidnap since he carries a big wrench used to fix the bobcat.

Is Bobcat Bob still out there today? How are the roads there? A lot of them are still crappy here. Hey but guess what - It's going to be about 40 so at least some of this bullshit will melt.

yah really...it's supposed to get up to 50 on Saturday and I'm all upset cuz I gotta work...but I did just hear that it's supposed to rain saturday. Which should be quite interesting. I'm preparing myself for flooding now. With 4 days in a row of mid-40 degree weather and then a day full of rain, we're gonna have some bad flooding I think. Lets see...30" of snow trying to melt into already saturdated land, the snow from the city being carried by dump truck to any river/big creek near the area filling up the waterway, and then who knows how many inches of rain on top of that. Yep...flooding is fun!

oh and as for the bobcat dude...send him to my college. We had 2 days off of school and they still couldn't plow all of the parking lots. It took me 25 mins to find a spot this morning...and the one i did find, I could barely get out of my car and I'll probably have to push it out of the spot. sigh....:o

NO flooding. My car is stored right next to a river at my dad's in a carbay. Literally next to it.. Well, there's an embankment there but...I don't want my car to wash away. Hmmmm. Maybe I can have Bobcat BOB tow it out.

Bobcat Bob is not a towing specialist, he is only good for plowing small parking lots - and he only works one day a week

Hey. It's a small parking lot. Maybe he can just push it out of the river then. Looking at the 10 day forecast, I see that we're supposed to get a little snow next Thur. And we're getting into March real soon. I'm thinking about taking my car out of hibernation probably about the third or fourth week of March. The only think that sucks is that they won't sweep the streets until around the end of April.
