My family and I just got from a ride looking at Christmas lights IN THE SNOW! I know that's not a big deal for most people, but the last time our town saw a white Christmas was 1898. We didn't get much, but it was blast for us to see. I never thought we'd ever see it. We went out riding, and there was a Honda Pilot that slid off the road looking at lights, so we pulled him out. My kids was were flipping about how awesome the "War Wagon" was, as they call it. Here's a few pics. I wish I had got some of the us pulling the Pilot. We were holding up traffic, so I hurrying to get the chains hooked up. My daughter took some through the window, but you couldn't really see much.

That would have been some great pictures; a fine example of "Quality American made" vehicle pulling a a foreign made pile of sheet out of a 1" snow bank. I think its a wonder you didn't pull the Honda apart at the door seams. lolrofl:grd:

Well, it did bend the tow hook on the rear of it. I had to massage it a little to get my J-hook out of of the hook. I couldn't find a hook or anything that even looked remotely safe to hook to on the front, and owner said there was a hook on the back. I put it in 4-low, and after I got all the slack out, I eased him back up out the ditch. The guy was pretty embarrassed by it, and he tried to pay me, but I told there was no way I would take money from him on Christmas. I told him Merry Christmas, and if he saw this big green Blazer broke down somewhere, I expected him to help me!:)
