Is there a wench provided with every sale to get your car up the drive? :o
 
Re: driveway fail

I think I viewed that photo at class a number of years ago. At that time we were told that it was from a development in PA. Sure would make it fun in the A.M. after an ice storm.

Professor brudgers,

Should I edit my post so I can get a good grade on my term paper?

Glade I can make you :lol:

Re: driveway fail

I would have to wonder who would ever purchase a house with a driveway so steep that their car could not enter the garage without bottoming out?
 
Re: driveway fail

You assume that is a driveway for a garage. Perhaps the room is a bonus room or a sleeping room. The concrete simply holds the soil in place.
