Red face you wont believe what happened this morning

I wake up at 8:30 to take the car to the body shop .. my mom is all frantic and tells me to come out to look at something ... her friend was coming over and she tried to park on the upper side of my street (those who have been to my house know what i mean) .. anyway .. she hit the gas instead of the brakes and made a little booboo (she is ok herself and didnt even get 1 scratch on her)

i'll let the pictures tell the tale

I ditched the Z once, got pulled out of an enbankment about like that with a tow truck, the crane was a bit of overkill. I think it did a ton of body damage that wouldn't have happened with a tow truck.

Holy Crap for Crap!

Oh well........mistakes happen...........
Hit the gas instead of the brakes though...............that's bad....

Sounds like something my mother would do.

Do you think it it had been a 4wheel drive SUV it could've had a chance of getting itself out?
Mabye with the help of a another 4 wheel drive one up top?

Pretty steep I guess......

I'll bet it was fun ride!

I doubt a stock SUV would make it out since all of the late models have open diffs , low ground clearance and crappy tires. A lifted Jeep with lockers and 32"+ mud terrain tires maybe...

If there was another one pulling from the top then possibly, but the tow strap angles would be bad and put alot of strain on the tow points and the strap itself. You really need to elevate the tow point in situations like that, hence a tow truck with a mini crane winch up top or a straight up crane.
