well, other day i stepped outside to goto work( 
at 10pm)and "oh sh$t" snowing.... not heavy snow, not a lot either, but just the right kind to make some REALLY bad driving conditions.
as i make the 35mile trek to work, I'm seeing people spinning around every where, a couple of fender benders, but mostly just people doing the 'ol 360 over an over again, like in that commercial for VW.
as i am going up an on ramp on a clover leaf, the car in front of me loses control and slides down into the middle of the clover leaf.
now just to clarify the situation, in MN they like to put little nature seines in the middle of the clover leafs. lakes trees, that kinda stuff.
this car is now sitting about half way down a 70 or so foot "cliff" at about 75ish degrees down angle, hanging nose first over an icy lake. i pull up on the edge of the embankment hop out and grab the 30' tow strap that i always have in my tool box. snap it onto my trailer hitch, and slide down the slope and snap the other end onto a hook on the back of the car.
i scramble my way back up the hill and jump back into my avalanche. I hit the 4LO button, and just as the transfer case locks in, the car breaks loose and falls another 15' until its caught by the strap.
I drop it into 3rd gear and bury the gas peddle
mudd, snow and grass are flying from all four tires. the sweet sound of a true dual cat-back exhaust system rips through the air, and i drag the little honda back up the side of the cliff onto the road!
quite possible saving two peoples lives.
as they get out of their car they ask," that's that chevy avalanche isn't it?"...."yup" I say....the man looks at me an says "i will never think that they are ugly again"
