Marcus, I did the same thing! Big time fun. I was in a parking lot. I used my skateboard to dig it out. Yeah Doug the porpoising is my fave part. :lol:

back in '96, Baltimore got clobbered pretty hard that winter. 2ft of snow and 6ft drifts. The boss said still I had to come in. So, driving down I-83S into Balto city, I was following a National Guard Humvee, when some retard in Volvo wagon came skidding across the highway. While doing my best to avoid her, I wound up in the median. Now, the median is about 50ft wide, and has 4ft tall shrubs in the center. The shrubs were not visible because of the snow piled on top and along side. My poor little Aspire wound up ontop of the shrubs! I got out of the car, used the trunk board to dig out the snow on the right side of the car, then opened the driver door and pushed up, allowing the car to roll-over onto its roof, then back on all 4 wheels. Got in, started it, and drove away. The national guardsman who stopped to check on me was a bit astounded... Of course, I got to work (Archway Ford), and the boss says we should go home. Butthole....

that sucks. now you cant go 30 feet and not be on a camrara. i live near the border (0 avenue), i go there on my moped with my friend and his mini bike, we break the speed limit there all the time. i am very surprised thet they havent sent border patroll after us lol. i can see the head lines ( crazy canadian kids out run border patroll on moped and mini bike ) lol. i have hit 100kmh on my moped, i think, i maxed out my speedo it only goes up to 80 lol. i can go faster if i got diffrent sprockets, but my tires are only rated to 55 kmh, i just about craped my self doing 100kmh lol

Best vehicle outside of a true 4 wheel drive in the snow.

It is amazing how well Festiva's go in the snow! Although I park my green one for the winter!

It started snowing here last night..so far where I live there's a couple inches. I took the Festy out in the snow and she loved it! I was doing reverse 180's and everything!! So fun!

Braking + turning is definitely something to master, but I can go about 40-50km/h with snow on the road and still have good traction!

[sasquatch]

it started snowing last night when i was sleeping. i rode my moped in the snow today and my road is a smooth road and no pot holes and i got up to 60kmh, in no time, on tires 1.5 inches wide, lots of fun .Unicornasaurus where are you in vancouver?
