Well a couple months back after I got the car running great I decided to go out for a little backroad excursion. If anyone know the area this road goes from Kamloops to Savona on the North side of Kamloops Lake. Well there is one corner, actually I shouldn't even say corner. It's more of a narrowing crest around a blind corner. Anyway I always slow down for this corner because you never know if you will meet traffic and there isn't much room for two vehicles to pass each other. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves:
I ended coming around the corner quicker than normal when all of sudden there is a pickup truck in front of me. Well I ended up braking and I tried to sneak by him but he had a trailer that took another two feet of space and well I ended up off the road. Thankfully it didn't roll and shortly after they left me to figure out how to get out I managed to backup and drive down the hill (after removing a chuck of fence to drive through). Car came out without a scratch and I continued on my journey. Subaru FTW!!!!
As a side note it is now a 5spd
