Boston harbor hotel, bottomed out harder than i ever have before I thought i was going to rip my exhaust off. Wasnt a speed pump just the decline of the entrance was so steep.

I have AAA i was thinking maybe getting towed out? I dont have toe hooks tho and i doubt a flat bed would fit in the garage

I have a friend with me in another car so i was thinking about leaving and getting a 2 x 4 and lieing it down on the top of the hill on one side to get myself over the bump.

ANY IDEAS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED

no i made it over but scrapped very hard. Exhaust sounds alright and runs fine so it looks like I made it over alright but I just don't want to drive over it again. I asked someone who works in the garage and they said that there is only one exit and its parallel to the entrance, ie im gonna do it again.

I drove over it straight on and there was two people in the car so and obvious possible solution is for me to drive it out solo and hit it at an angle but I think scrapping hard again is inevitable

Anyone run into a situation like this? Worried my magnaflow is gonna rip in half

I was thinking if it helped you to take a passenger out, maybe take the driver out and push it? Idk how much more that would help you or if you'll even be able to push it or whatever.... Good luck!

may be to late now but angleing it usually helps more then a straight shot over it and pushing it may not be a bad idea. but if you have to drive it go solo and don't hit it straight on. had to do it numerous times on my other cars.

Have you considered having a bunch of folks up at the street level make sure the exit to the garage is clear of pedestrians and other cars, and then do a Banzai run up the ramp at full throttle?
