A positive side to Edmonton's potholes.....

TylerG · 06-10-2007, 08:07 PM

Well, as luck would have it after cursing and swearing at Edmonton's pothole situation, it has helped me out.

My 4x4 was not engaging on my truck till today when I hit a deep pothole on Yellowhead trail close to 156st, and I heard a "click" down where my control module is, so I flipped the switch to 4x4 high, and it engaged, got home. Put it down into 4x4 low, and it works too. So Thanks Edmonton for your shotty road maintenance, you fixed my truck.

nah the escape would probably blow up or fall aparty doing that.... if your looking for the BIG pothole, its on the east side of the 156st overpass in the middle lane.... watch for it cause it jostles you good.
