with that much snow its quite useless for me to drive out, cause i launched my car out of the garage @ 10km/h+ but that made it worse, manage to hop onto a thick blanket of snow.

i'm going to give up driving on side roads. i have to park my car a few blocks away. it really sucks.
i over estimated my snow tires this year, like it didnt' snow like this last year and i've only had my car for two winters, i juts can't get out of snow that's deeper than like 8 inches.

i got stuck in coquitlam last night and at one point i had trouble opening the door it was so high...

plus my exhaust is taking a HUGE beating. next year i'm getting a 4wd winter vehicle.

Just spent 20 min getting all the snow off my car and then plowing the snow around it.
Then another 40+ min attempting to get out of my parking spot and onto Rupert that is just 1 house away......
All just to prove to my friend that my car cant even fucking move with it so low and on all-season tires.
Yet for some fucking reason after many attempts, he still thinks my car can make it.
The sound of all the snow scraping everything underneath your car so just so painful, sounded like it would even rip off my front bumper/lip.
Now with all this snow and no way my car is going anywhere, its a good time get on getting my Wow character leveled...

got stuck in my back lane too. its was not an issue of tire traction with it being an awd. the car got high centered. it was quite funny when i just left the car in first, got out and saw all 4 tires spinning in the air.

does anyone know if a snow plower company is hiring because my toyota just cleared my entire street at the expense of my front bumper. Although surprisingly my grandmas 93 tercel rips right through the snow on those all season tires haha.
