Tried putting my spare on the roof, but the hooks on the ratchet straps were to small.

Got her totally stuck last night in about 10 inches of snow! dug the frozen ground down about 2-3 inches. hadda get pulled out by a jeep - thankfully i didn't have to call CAA to pull me out of my own lawn!

here's the story, parked the jimmy thurs night and felt it just slide about 2-3 inches sideways after i put it in park, go to reverse and next thing u know she's on the grass and gettin buried fast. shat part is - if i had 4x4 this wouldn't have happened so this is now an official THIS WEEK fix this is gonna be cold

just after that i get the phone call from the friend with the "my engine's @ 125f right now what do i do?" SHUT the fukin car off NOW! lol - go out and deliver a bottle of Dex-Cool after its cooled off - inspect and determine that its the water pump gasket pooched. Replaced that today, refilled, charged the system up and BAM it just sprays coolant out of the rad! bad 24 hrs goes worse so monday's agenda includes replacing a Rad in an 02 cav! lol

Drove the K5 around yesterday getting parts needed for the Hoe. An engine & front diff oil change were needed. The oil changes were easy! Mounting my 18" blue light on the roof, not so much... got it all done though.
