High center a tracked machine and you're just as stuck as anything else. Usual hazard of mud riding - Getting deep in the ruts and stuck on the chunks or just finding a stump. Applies to everything that doesn't fly and takeoff vertically.

Yup, even an M1 Abrams Tank could get stuck........although I'd like to see that. LOL

I was just thinking about this car. We had one in the family. It was one of the finest cars we have ever owned. I burned out the trans in it in the winter of '79 by rocking it trying to get it out of our snow-covered alley. It was a freaking tank. I took it to Sears to put on Sears Guardsman Steel Belted Radial Snow Tires on it. It never got stuck again after that. Awesome freaking car.

Holy crap! It's amazing to me that this didn't turn out much worse than it did. Damned that sucker was going fast.

Evil Knievel would have laughed at these guys. The last one almost didn't make the jump - Lucky for them they made it even if they bounced around a bit. Where are the really tall ramps they are supposed to be launched from?

Every time he drove on the shoulder he could had been taken out by road debris... and the guys he passed on the left of the left lane... how bad would their heart attack had been.. I know I would had shit my pants if someone passed me in that little/close space doing 250km/h...
I don't wish ill on anyone... but stupid guys like this I can make an exception...

Check those other Tesla AP vids there, that is the result when people forget&neglect to look for other traffic and think the car will handle it.

My old Man's Vette. As promised I do have the pictures now, but will upload the rest later. The 442 was his first car, this one not his though. I'll upload the actual car another time. Gotta go out for Birthday family dinner and stuff. Attachments:

ROFLMAO. Scotty Kilmer cracks me up. But I do agree with him on most of this stuff.
You know, I really hate todays so called modern cars. What crap they are. I drove a Toyota Prius not too long ago. I don't get it. It's the ugliest and worst driving experience I ever had. Very uncomfortable. And the damned thing can't get out of it's own way. I just don't get it.

I have a 2013 Prius. Up here our fuel is near $8.50/gal... I have it for the fuel savings and commuting for work. Mine is worn in well enough that it isn't uncomfortable. I can do a 10+hr driving trip in one shot and my back wouldn't be fucked up.
I get about 400 miles to 500 miles on just over 9 gallons of fuel. Mileage range is due to outside temp.. once below 32F the system takes much longer to warm up so the hybrid system takes more time to enable. above 32-40F I get great range.

nah. you're accustom to big cars with V6's or V8's... not sure about the new prius's but mine has a 99hp 4cyl with a 50hp electric motor... that's a drastic change. I can understand your thoughts on the driving experience of it. Took me a bit to get used to as well.
