So with the recent snowy/rainy/sleeting/freezing rainy/windy/frosty conditions we've been having the last few days here, there hasn't been much chance to clear off the driveway. In hindsight, that is definitely a bad thing. This evening I pulled into my driveway, hit a divot that was left by my dad's Jeep, and went out of control into a small wall we have for planters.

(insert four letter word here).

whoops. Talk about completely useless in anything more than a light breeze. So much for ground clearance.

Ouchie!!  That sucks, James!!

Didn't get the radiator or anything else did it?  

I don't se alot of anti-freeze under your truck so it doesn't look like it damage it.

We.ve got nothing but rain and high winds and that's about it.  We were at The College of New Jersey on Sunday and it was nothing but rain there.  How much farther are you above Trenton?

It happens... be thankful you didn't lose control on the highway; I've been there and I don't recommend it. Wink

Reminds me I'll be hitting the Skyway tonight on my way to work... I'll have to keep a sharp lookout, because there's still some ice around here.
