Oops....

[mowin]

Well, can't blame this on anyone but me..
Was plowing my last drive yesterday after the noreaster dumped around 10" is snow in my area.
Was backing up, and my phone rang. My "rule" is to stop completely before answering the call. Well, I was tired, and obviously I didn't follow my rule.

[SYKRAMMAN]

Dam that sux man, if that was a first gen, it probably would of knocked over the tree.

The oak tree definitely won.

Bumper was covered in snow, so when in reverse it was on constantly, so I turned it off. I had cleaned it off several time already, but the trees limbs were weighed down with snow, and when plowing thru the mess, the bumper woud get covered. The snow was like glue and would stick to everything.

Sounds like you gotta have a bonfire this summer and seek some vengeance on that tree. That storm sucked for sure, let’s hope this next one isn’t as bad

When I was 15, I was moving my dad's old ram 2500 longbed out of the driveway. Stupid tree came out of nowhere was hit the truck.

You'll look back and laugh just like do now.

This isn't my first fight with a tree. Been plowing more yrs then I care to remember.

Lost every time too. This is one definitely wins the most damage award. Lol

Well, got a couple estimates today.

Turns out my $1600 guess was slightly low. Like half. $3200.
