I've driven on dirt roads for a very long time. Dicked around on them in many vehicles from FWD Park Ave, Ranger to a huge lifted burb. So I think it's driver error.

How did you do that? That fact that the road surface was gravel isn't sufficient for that outcome. I've driven on gravel, dirt, snow, and ice without anything like that happening. I don't see any road in those pics. How far off the road did you get? The only time anything like that has happened to me, another car ran me off the road.
!driver means "no driver".... hmmm.... do you normally drive your car without being in it?

No offense man but I screw around on gravel roads all the time. You just can't go as fast but man, for those that have never done it, it is very similar to driving a dirt track car if the road is just right. Mucho fun drifting the corners ;-) Oh yeah and ONLY NON BLIND CORNERS.

It's not drifting, it's powersliding!! >_< I hate the term drifting 
It was powersliding till just a few years ago. Drifting sounds like something you do in the snow with a sled (plastic sled, not snowmobile)
Anyways, yea, it either had to be really muddy/slick from rain, or you were going way to fast into a corner :\
Hopefully you can get it fixed or get another one.
