Got myself into a spot of bother today.
Got my nav stuck on an angle only millimetres from tipping over.
Couldn't go forwards or backwards without putting it on it's side.
Took my girls out for a drive today with no intentions if 4wding
but decided to check out a track out the back of an industrial area
near my work.
And ended up like this.

About 20 minutes worth of shovelling and
a bit of clutch smoke and I was outta there !
My kids got it on video along with their somewhat
negative (although funny) commentary.
Was close I can tell yah.
Live and learn though.
 
almost as funny as the bloke on stocton beach yesyerday in a brand new hilux(xmas present )
poor fella kept getting bogged cause he was still in 2wdrive (currymuncher)
i had to show him what that little second stick was for
and how to let your tyres down
true story

thats not to bad, seen worse and been in a test bed that put a nav at more angle than that. its not the angle that tips you over, its generally the bounce from hitting the bumps or sliding down sideways and hitting a bump.

That's right we used to drive the tractor on some horrific angles around the farm, some feeling worse than the above would have because the tractor is so top heavy but slow and steady usually wins the race. Eventually you will fall over if you tip far enough so knowing your limits does help.
