This is what happens when you forget to take out your 3 ball hitch....
..you get the ball that was on bottom stuck in the pavement..
Afterwards at the QT using their squeegee's to clean my mirrors off....Oh i'm the one on the left sporting my nissan hat! Oh and sorry QT for the two muddy squeegee's

Silly boys didn't make a check list. At least you had a tow strap setup.

This is simply means you wear improper tires, try to use 265/70-17 as minimum...

I have 265/70 16's but tires were not the problem it was my hitch i forgot to take off that busted a nice round hole for the ball to sit in the pavement.
Good observation JAHBLESSINGS glad somebody pays attention!

Oops, didn't realized, but....I meant bigggger  So, why don't you use 265/75-16 in this case? Difference is huge!

That's funny, it reminds of a time we went off-roading in my CJ7 at night. 20 minutes into our fun, I hit a big A$$ tree stump that I didn't see and got hung up on it. For the life of us we couldn't get it off, so we spent the night sleeping in my soft top jeep on a mountain. Even though it was summer, man was it ever cold. Lessons learned. No more night 4X4ing.
Glad you made it out and laughed about it.

Yeah thats what i plan on getting when i have money, but all my money goes into my car payment and insurance! When i bought my pathy it had 245's and they lasted awhile, but i needed new ones... Since I was broke I looked for a lightly used set and found these on craigslist for $80. They will last me till next winter so i cant beat that, but need more meat for wheeling.
