No picture, but here's how events transpired...
On a date in July, it's about 6pm, cruising around with this chick in my topless Jeep TJ to get all the panties wet. To get said panties yet more wet I opted to take a right turn into a closed construction site for residential homes. I see the fill pile from basement excavations, I see that it's wet topsoil instead of clay or gravel-boney soil, but I think 'Surely I can demolish this in 4x4 to get the v-juices flowing like the Nile.' I get about halfway up the burm and get stuck, it takes me 20 minutes to get unstuck, using my work boots, shovel, some nearby sand, just a nightmare, but it turns out this was the pleasant part of my night.
On the way back down I see a 1-2 foot wide long puddle resembling a stream, where the runoff from the wet topsoil drained to. Again I think 'My 4x4 can go through that without aaaaaany problems.'
Lesson learned: silty water resembling mud + heavy Jeep front end = fucked in the ass by Tyson.. repeatedly.
It took 3 towtrucks 4 hours to lift my Jeep out like a crane, the Jeep was literally at a 70-80 degree angle with the nose down in this stream. Both front tires and fenders burried, that night cost me so much money that I sold the Jeep furiously afterwards.
Now I miss it... but yeah that's my STUCK story... it sucked hairy ass.

i was following my wife's car one day when she decided to take a "shortcut" through a backend car wash lane... to say that the 6 lined up speedbumps were shockingly enormous was an understatement... i struggled through the first one and threw a temper tantrum on the speed bump... my wife was so annoyed, she left WTF! by the 3rd bump i got stuck, and yeyy police officers came and helped me while another cop came just to laugh at me. i didn't talk to my wife for 3 days.

so assuming u guys install ur coilovers at a garage that has the 4 point rack thing, how do u get off the rack? I'm sure the parts that make contact with ur frame (dear god i wish i knew some better technical terms) are taller than your ride height, at least the ones here are. do u bring blocks of wood and put them under the tires to give u clearance then move the arms out of the way? or do u use a floor jack to lift the car up?... I think I just answered my question

There's a bad speed bump at school that I tried once, it's right in front of the entrance before class, I hit the control arm lollypops and came to a stop so I hit the gas more and spun my way over haha. Nice cloud of smoke for everyone standing there.
