This time I got stuck. I had to call my friend who has a Pathfinder and we went to get a chain at my house and he pulled me out. Otherwise I would've been completely fucked, since we were only 2 there:

2 days ago, my friend's golf, they managed to push it out cause they were 4 people, and I was driving:

Nice honda, don't like the golf though; too square.

Yes, I drove past that when I was driving forwards, but we found that the rest of the road was pure mud, so we had to back out of there and thats when I fell into the ditch.

is it normal for Canadians to go "off roading" with vehicles that were never meant to see grass, much less mud?

lol, when me an my mates were a bit younger we used to buy banged up cars from the scrapyard for like 20 bucks and then take them up a forest by me then rag the shit out of it

thats how you do proper offroading :)

also the best cars for the job were the old ford cortinas, each one cost a tenner and the only one we could break ended up driving sideways

right, but those were beat up pieces of crap, not a newer car.

What in the holy fuck are you doing Toxic? Why don't you rebuild an old Bronco if you want to offroad?

That's not offroading. That's just driving into a mudhole and getting stuck. :smirk:

So an American will buy a Ford Excursion to navigate the harsh highways of a suburb, while a Canadian will buy a 2-door Civic to trailblaze their way through a marsh. IC!

I'm not sure which one is stupider...in this situation, at least. Usually it's the American, but ffs, who tries offroading in a Civic?
