Thread: Snow? What snow?? VX VIDEO

    Snow? What snow?? VX VIDEO

    Well, as you know North East got hit pretty hard by a snow blizzard. We got about 20+ inches of snow dumped on us since yesterday. To give you an idea of how much snow we got here are some pictures of my burried VX:





    From these pictures, it looks like this baby is not going anywhere. Well, I still decided to attempt to get it out without digging it out. So my wife took the video camera, and I took the wheel... what happened? See for yourself how VX did. (Keep in mind that I am not a professional filmmaker so go easy on me)

    VX SNOWPLOW

    If the video is slow or pauses, try to right click on the link and save the file locally on your PC, then it will play fine. I am not sure what is the bandwith of my server so it could be slow if a few people hit it at the same time. Enjoy

    For the folks with a slow dial-up connection, here is a link to a lower quality video:

    Too Funny!!!
    We only got a measly 12" here in Vermont and didn't have time to shovel the driveway before work. I decided to keep the baby in the garage and take the 2 wheel drive Rodeo to work today...(Isuzu Snowplow)...No problems.
    I lost count...was that a twelve point turn or.....
    Your video was great!

    Thanks Anita and John Yea, twelve point is pretty damn close, but she made it out! I was pretty sure I'll get stuck, so i was pleasantly surprised. My wife's Infinity FX35 would not even move in that snow... then again, she's got 20 inch sports tires which are really summer only.

    Thanks. I used Windows Movie Maker. I didn't expect much from it since it came with my Widows Media Center PC but it is actually very easy to use and works pretty well. I used more complicated programs before but this one was so easy - pretty much drag and drop and you are done. Took me about 10 minutes to put this video together. It also had no problem controlling my Panasonic camcorder through firewire. Microsoft definitely impressed me with this little proggy.

    Spasibo How is your store doing? Hope business is going well, sorry I missed the grand opening.

    Jonathan: I actually live right next to all the schools - Richardson Road. I moved there a year and a half ago so I wasn't there 2 years ago. I will definitely check out Jones Farm, thanks for the tip.

    Funny stuff -
    I almost expected to see the VX do the "dog shake" (like in the Jeep Grand Cherokee commercial) when if was finally out of the snow.
