At the gas station. Plastic is hanging down from the bumper. We got kicked out because the manager didn't want us dripping mud everywhere

Pretty deep in mud.

This is where I think my hood stopped being flush with the rest of the car. Through the next three pictures notice the gap between the hood and the headlights.

Not much of a gap, if any.

Boom!! Didn't quite clear that ditch. Landed right on the underside of the front bumper.

Now look at the gap between the hood and the headlights. Is this bad?

Got stuck.

My friend couldn't get out because of the water level.

Trying to get out.

The water's pretty deep.

ROFL...

was it stolen?

I wouldn't try that unless I had an AWD car, you've got some balls heh unless you did it at like 5mph then I take that back. It'd still be more fun in an AWD car.

I hope that was a rental.

I don't think I'd have the guts to put a sedan of my own through something like that

Too many to count.

This was when I was still a noob at stick shift and I couldn't quite judge the placement of my wheel correctly. I also overrevved a lot which caused a lot of skidding around. Plus the stock tires suck ass for offroading.

I wish I could afford to intentionally destroy my own vehicle too...

...wait, no I don't

Yes, but off road tires suck ass at on road braking.
You are out of your mind to go offroading with such a car.

 

[quakefiend420]

so was that your car?

 

[DivideBYZero]

Buy the biggest SUV you can, put offroad tires on it and do Autocross or put it on a track. Thats about all you could do to top this.
