The other Night I was coming home. Some idiot tail-gated me along my street, so I pulled into my driveway.... I like backing into my driveway, so I decided to situate the truck as I wanted it by facilitating a 3 point turn in my driveway. (Rather than back out back onto the street cause I was lazy).

The following is the end result.

How long did it take to get out of that situation?

PS- you have more guts than I do. I don't think I'd have the nerve to post pics of myself getting stuck like that, especially pics of a Ford on a GM fan site.

It took 30 minutes to wait on the tow truck, From there it just was 5 minutes (and $40).

I had ideas not involving the tow truck, but they were not safe, so my mom put a stop to it. When she saw what i was doing.

I figured you guys would like seeing the downed Ford.

I don't know if you can tell in the pics, but the right rear wheel is 1-1/2' off the ground.

Believe it or not, it was actually a Kenworth.

It was a badass looking rig.

If the Tow Truck Driver ever stopped laughing, I would've asked him if they were hiring.

So, what the heck did you actually fall into

didnt see the ditch?

USA1Fan · May 26, 2005

It looks like you right front tire and the frame underneath the engine were all that was making contact in front, right? I wonder if our G80 rear auto-lockers would have got one of our trucks out of that situation or not.

As long as you and the truck (Even though its a F@#d ) are OK,Thats the main thing.

Pretty much so, You can't see it (the camera-person didn't take any shots of the left for some reason) but I bottomed out underneath the driver seat. Which was preventing the left front from getting full contact with the bottom of the ditch.

Mrquadrasteer, I "fell" into a 2-3' ditch. (But it's not that deep anymore thanks to some modifications I made the next day )
