My friend next to my Bus in Ensenada... FAIL!

We got towed out by a Mexican 4x4.

The wood belongs INSIDE the Bus... in the back hopefully!

Yeah I was skeptical about going onto the beach thinking we might get stuck and we were doing fine for 95% of the way then WHAM hit this pile of sand and we were stuck! Pretty lucky someone with a 4x4 came by and he only needed to tow us like 25 feet and we were okay but I swear my Bus looked like a toy car when he was pulling it out of the mini-dune. After was fine and we made it back to the road no problem! A good wash with a hose at a carwash got all the sand off the engine tin, etc.

now that is some off-roading =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

given that i go offroading with my friends all the time (not in my bus)
i know how little a camera or video will capture
when it comes to the steepness of a hill
or the difficulty of a climb

that was some steep shit for the front bumper to scrap
on the way down

Your story reminds me of a few friends who had the same thing happen. Heres a video.
