Funny (kinda) story:
Last week my husband and I were on a state park beach that allows vehicles to drive on it…..mostly, the drivers of said vehicles are fishermen who don’t want to carry all their gear on foot out to the beach (it’s a long walk, wide beach, high dunes). Most of these vehicles are Jeeps or pickup trucks running the appropriate tire pressure.
Well, a guy in a new Ford Explorer decided to take a drive on the beach, and got very stuck. Front axel down in the sand. A guy in a Jeep kindly came to his rescue, but there was no tie point at the front of the Explorer. So the Jeep tried to pull him out from the rear. No go. They were at it for about a half hour before we left. Never knew if the guy got out.
But meanwhile, as this was going on, 3 Outback’s went cruising by in the sand!
This was the Jeep and Explorer viewed from over the dunes as we left. I was too self conscious to take a photo of them on the beach….felt bad for the guy.
