X6 fallen thru ice!

shenard · 01-13-2010, 08:52 PM

Just found this on another forum. Doesn't look like a fun day for this X6 owner!

Wow that sucks. I was just talking to a friend that I should take my car to a frozen lake a bit north of here for some fun. After seeing this, I will stick to asphalt!

Since it handles so well I think folks forget it's a 5200 LB auto. not the same as blowing across a frozen lake on a snowmobile.

More evidence of Global Warming!
Or someone thinking they can defy the laws of physics!

Year1of1 · 01-14-2010, 10:24 AM

Hope they managed to towed/windged it out before the trunk flooded.

I'm from Texas and even I know that you drill to test the ice thickness before proceeding.
Driving across a frozen lake (with the window cracked) is an awesome feeling!
