      It looks like you at least had a soft landing - that should take some of the sting out of the tow bill. So, after that excursion, do you need to shampoo the seat?

      Nope, I had actually had done it earlier in the week...I was going 15 tops..so it was slow...almost cathartic...yesterday..I was going 55. Only really had time to realize it was happening and then that it was over..tow was 95 with tax. Luckily the car is as heavy as a frisbee...and I didn't go farther down and/orr nose front into the bank. Also lucky that there weren't other cars and that I didn't go into the median

      Yes, short wheelbase cars and snowy roads can be fun. I can remember having a Chevy Tracker and using three lanes from guardrail to guardrail to merge one snowy morning. Luckily, there was no traffic and I brought it to a halt on the shoulder, but I certainly wasn't constipated that morning.
