A new Range Rover Sport here starts around $75k and is a lot more in the UK. Story says this one was worth 20k pounds, less than $30K, so at least it wasn’t a new one.

They don’t have winches or bulldozers or front end loaders in Midland?

I guess easier to let it sit there than have to pay someone OT to move it on Sunday.

Definitely a good example of the animals running the zoo.

LOL

My old cheap GPS thinks it’s over a decade ago - driving through Oklahoma, she kept trying to get me to drive into the woods every 1/2 miles - I had to shut her up.

Figured there was some guy with a hockey mask and a chain saw in there somewhere......(hey I like Oklahoma a lot - just don’t trust an old GPS - especially when I knew I needed to stay north to I-44 not drive west into the tree line lol)

Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I knew one with a “tractor story”. First I thought she had toes for thumbs.

Maybe she thought she was being targeted by a Challenger tank.
