Wouldn't it have made sense to just shovel the snow out of the way? Being that there were like 5 guys there, they could have cleared that in no time. :doh:
On a side note, that chassis doesn't seem too rigid, as far as safety is concerned, what if therewas an accident- rear ended....

Bumpers are mounted on a kind of shock....it functions fine when hit from behind or slightly to the side...what they did was strap to that "shock" and pull the opposite way it was intended to tolerate. That being the case they mounted the strap at is weakest point and pulled it in its weakest direction....bad combination.
Your car..my car...hell even a hummer would probably come to nearly the same conclusion.
