First Time I Had To Use My Tow Hook Off road With The Yaris - Toyota Yaris Forums

kustom play · 09-06-2009, 09:54 PM

Monsoon here in phoenix blew over our tree in the front yard, back in the day i would jump in the jeep and tug that bad boy right back up

now with no more jeep im like wtf, well lets try the yaris, so i screwed in the tow hook and drove over the stream bed rocks and with the help of the g/fs dad we got it back up and into position

i was a bit worried about scraping on the small river rocks we had but it just made it

good job little yaris!

it was kinda like a swamp so the car sank in a bit

after the monsoons here the ground is so hard the water just sits on top then all of a sudden it gets sucked in

when i first went out the tree my whole foot went down under the tiny rocks into the ground

+ its just a baby tree so its not that heavy, just needed it to pull the tree back up and to serve as an anchor and hold the tree in place while we put new lines on it
