The Malt Hound Well, the "snowbank" was *on* the road. :-) Here are two more pictures. In the first I'm parked *off* the road while taking the picture. This is also before I got stuck as you can see by the front only being covered by road grime and not snow. In the second picture, compare how much of the amber sticks, marking the edges of the road, is viable on the right vs. the left side of the road. I'd estimate that it's between two and three feet of snow *on* the road on the right side. I'm standing pretty much in the middle of the road in this picture too. Yup, studded snow tires. Ulf
Look, if that snowbank WAS on the road, timing, not sedan version, is your problem.
If you NEED to drive when the snow on the road is higher than your bumper, how much imagination does it take to realize that it's ground clearance you need, and not the inch or so difference between e30, e34, or ix variants.
Once you manage to use the snow as a ramp, and take the weight off the wheels, it wont much matter how many of them are spinning, or if it has tires or paddlewheels on it.
There is a reason that plows are pushed by the type of machinery that pushes them. The common denominator is ground clearance.
BMW's are lousy submarines, too. Let me save you the trouble of test diving various models.
