LOL! I'll say! I had to ride in the back of one of those several times. At 5'8" which isn't even tall, it sucked getting the back of my skull smacked thanks to the rear window when hitting bumps. Horrible, horrible experience!

What baffles me about the whole thing though.... Why the hell were they pulling the car back?Wouldn't the simplest solution be something like this: Put the shifter in the position labeled D if it's an automatic, or hit the clutch, put it in the thing called 1, release the clutch, and uh, MOVE FORWARD? I didn't see anything blocking their way to do that!No, that's too difficult, we're going to tie a bumper to something underneath the car and pull it rearward through a big pile of snow. Maybe they were just being idiots and did it intentionally. I know if I had a car like that, I probably would too. lol

Or even if they wanted to pull it backward, hook to the axel or frame, not the friggin body!

There was a larger clear spot on the left side of the driveway...but noooo, they wanted to drag it through the snowbank I guess. LOL

I'm confused... for a driveway that was clear in front of the car and 80% clear to the driver's rear of the car why did they try and tow it out? Bunch of useless brain cells at work there if you ask me. But if it wasn't for boys like that, what would the rest of us have to laugh at? hahahahaha

ROFL! Saw this one about a year ago, too, but it's still funny!Quote, originally posted by ColonelPanic »I had to ride in the back of one of those several times. At 5'8" which isn't even tall, it sucked getting the back of my skull smacked thanks to the rear window when hitting bumps. lol, you know, I just had this happen to me last week. I had to ride in the back of my g/f's RSX and the same thing happened to me. I'm about 5'11", though, but it was the same experience. Every time she hit a bump, my head smacked off of the top of the rear hatch window. I thought for sure I was going to break the glass with my thick skull! Man, that HURT!!!

Damn I can't see it! It's filtered out here at work so I guess I'll have to go home and look. But I'm one of the 6 people left in the US who doesn't have high speed internet at home, so I hope I can see it the way it was meant to be!

Work was the only place I was able to view it. I'm also one of those 6 people on dial-up at home too, so I can't watch it here. Surprised it wasn't blocked at work, all the pr0n crap on the side of that site.

With the record snowfall that some areas have recently experienced, the proper techniques to use for extracting your Geo Storm from an extremely dangerous, slippery, snowy situation can not be stressed enough. Therefore, BUMP!And I've changed the link to a different one away from the previous one that had all the pr0n, but it still seems to be on ebaumsworld. lol.

I know if I had a car like that, I probably would too. lolif fact, this video is edited.. on the long version, you can see the Storm stucked in the guys driveway, so that's why they're going backward. after few tries, the car keep going on the right, and got in more snow. even there, they wouldn't have been able to do it frontward, there was too much snow under it. should have attached the cable on the Axis? sure, but it's still a Storm... it would have made the same thing, but worse...
