haha, oh man. I have great memories... my car spent almost 2 weeks in a ditch. My GF and I ended up having to move apartments right in the worst part of the storm, our landlord wouldn't give us an extension. I had been so busy doing other things that I never had a chance to buy and mount winter tires, so I still had my Toyo T1Rs on there.

We attempted one last run to get things when the snow started dumping. On the final turn down our street my car lost all traction at about 5mph on a patch of ice, went sideways towards a telephone pole. My girlfriend, the crazy and amazing woman that she is, jumped out and pushed the car on the ice away from the pole but it went sideways the other way into a ditch of powder. Couldn't get it towed until all the tow trucks were taken off 911 duty. Crappy week. But no damage to the car
