    Oooops

    This is what happens when you hurriedly back a 101 with 35" tyres onto ramps on a sloping driveway (no other option). Unfortunately from inside you cannot fee the stops of the ramps from inside the cab and it is easy you go too far.

    I cannot get this out and will have to jack up the rear and remove the wheel. Something to do tomorrow.

    Seriously I hope the floor of the rear body is not damaged.
    Just to make you feel better I have bent the front bullbar on my 101 with a tree one time and on the last outing bent one of the rear jerry can holders on another tree.

    Unfortunately for me easier said than done - I have made the ramps tip up before but they have never driven right over them. Further mods to the ramps may be required to prevent further issues.

    Maybe you had better stay away from the trees.

    I did that with a Datsun 180B - perhaps a little easier to jack and extract
