Got stuck in the snow
 

So the wife and I were looking for a place to rent and we came upon this little house on top of a hill. My first mistake was trying to turn around on the one lane driveways instead of just backing out; it was a LONG driveway. Long story short, I got stuck in a ditch/front lawn. Ended up having to get winched out an hour later by a tow truck.

TL;DR
Don't write a check your ass can't cash.
Make sure you have roadside assistance in case shit hits the fan.
And don't be a dumb ass like me. #ItdoesntsnowinTexas

No photos of actually being stuck?

Are they not showing up? It kind of hard to see but I'm on an incline. There should be a YouTube video too.

Lol they're up just messin, you must have stock tires on.

And as you know now, they're useless in snow lol

Yeah stock Primacy's friend. Yeah I thought I was big **** driving around this long without crashing or dying, but one hill put me to shame, lol. You live and you learn.

Haha. That's awesome. Suck though. At least nothing happened to the car. Be safe in the future!

wow I thought my gto was bad in snow, think frs is worse.

Doesn't seem so bad???:iono:

Did you at least try rocking the car in 1st and reverse? Usually does the trick.

Must have been awkward being stuck on someones front lawn lol...

Wow that's sad, lol... Great evidence that the stock Primacy tires should NOT be trusted in snow.

Try appropriate seasonal tires...unlike OP. This car with snow tires and some ballast in the trunk to prevent wander makes it a *great* snow car as long as the ground clearance is there.

Crickets anyone? Perfect example of how shitty the crickets make this car sound.

Yeah I tried everything. I ended up just making it worse because the ground wasn't solid, just frozen swampland.

Yeah I just noticed you can hear the crickets from far away in the video. I always blast the radio though so it doesn't really phase me. As long as it doesn't hurt the car I might not do anything about it.

Or instead of listening to people whine about all-seasons not doing it, just don't think you're an off-road snowmobile? lol :P

Getting stuck in the yard with snow isn't exactly equal to surface streets. All I see is driver error. /shrug. Happens. Least you had assistance.

I wouldn't expect most tires beyond dedicated snow tires to get through a snowy yard.
