Default Cant get up the driveway w/o scraping bad
Just wondering if there were any other tricks than angeling it the best I can...... or could I lay something down outside b/c the angle from the road to my driveway is really steep? I can get down usually w/o scraping but I really dont want to have to back it up the driveway b/c its really long and has several turns (i live out in the sticks, not in a mansion with a roundabout and a fountian haha).

Oh, and its the rear everytime. I have the SAP package, which I dont think is the problem b/c the exhaust scrapes.

Go up the same way you go down? If you can get off it with out scraping, means you can get on it with out scraping..

I don't know what your driveway is made out of, but either way, get a contractor to take the steepness out with some tar or concrete.

Some hydros and a set of dayton wires on vogues should do the trick.
