Just like the Beetle couldn't tow the Airstream trailer in the current crop of Touareg print ads, it's not too adept at wrenching a Jeep out of the snow, either. Especially when the half-wits tied the tow strap AROUND THE WINDSHIELD FRAME:

Nice. And the windshield header is part of the unibody, too. I wonder what they're going to tell the insurance company? A big thumbs-up to VW for reinforcing that sucker, though. Not that I would, but if I had tried that in my old LeBaron, it would have folded the windshield frame clean in half.

The original thread (with a few more pictures) can be found HERE.

Yeah, I saw that in the car lounge. Sad to think someone thought they could put the tie straps around the a-pillars without problems. :roll:

:razz: :razz:

Dang, looks like EVERYONE involved had a "bit" of tequila! Sheesh!!! :cool:

Are you sure these aren't out-takes from "Dumb and Dumberer"? :razz:

It should be a crime to sell a vehicle to people that stupid! :lol: :lol: :lol:

They must be college students. (puts on flame suit)

I saw someone strand a GMC Jimmy on my street in exactly this fashion. It was after a storm, when snow had been pushed up into a lot of the regular parking spaces, and the bozo figured he'd just park there anyway, by god. :roll: I didn't have the nerve to snap a picture.
