It's a Jeep thing. On ice.

I'm not 100% certain this is from our North Texas freeze we are dealing with, but it's still enough for a chuckle.

Thought for a moment he might throw himself in front of it to save his jeep!

Frame damage. Totaled.

The doors come pre-dented, so you're welcome. Nothin' to see here...

Jeep on Jeep violence has got to STOP! There was a perfectly useless small sedan right there he could have hit?

 

[Reseg]

I wonder if it was a hard enough hit to knock the corrosion off the hinges lol.

I've encountered black ice several times driving a tractor-trailer, once in bright sunshine in Montana. With the big truck your first clue is the tac needle jumps up as your drives lose traction, then your trailer tries to pass you in the other lane as it is now pushing the tractor which has lost contact with the pavement. If you stay off the brakes and have a deft hand you can reel it back in, sometimes it then tries to pass on the other side, etc.etc. One you get it straightened out your nerves are shot waiting for it to happen again, especially at night at the end of a long day.

My Lord, this is a rough croud.

 

[missionale]

he's only worried because the white Jeep is a rental - otherwise bring it on!!

Maybe there's no ice at all? Maybe it's a jealous guy ramming his ex girlfriends Jeep, but his JT was stuck in 4lo?

Talk about delusions of grandeur... Not sure what he thought he was going to accomplish since he was also sliding on ice. Guessing he's watched one too many Marvel movies.

That's one way to get the hinge corrosion fixed ?‍

Seen the same thing on multiple sled trips. When you're cruising the highway and suddenly your trailer full of snowmobiles is next to your side window expect a heavy puckered moment.

Jeeps have 4 wheel drive and 4 wheel disc brakes. However, if the traction on ice is "zero", then 4 x 0 = 0. (There, I did the math for you).

Yeah... 4WD doesn't help you stop... it's all about the tires.
