Wouldn't take much to put a heftier edge on it, some Tapcons and a 2x4. Or Tapcons and a piece of angle iron.
But I don't know why everyone is freaking out. You've obviously been parking in your driveway like this for a while.

It only takes once. Just ask anybody with a culvert at the end of his driveway.

Finally able to get the van north to the Whites the other day after a couple of months of engine work and idle troubleshooting. So satisfying. |

Factory-Finished, Professionally-Made vans are real nice, but sometimes, just sometimes, a Hand-Crafted, Artisan van is a nice sight, all on it's own...
