Even with all the safety sensors and electronic nannies, we still manage to get our rigs in some pretty precarious situations. From flops to wet socks, we've compiled more than three dozen of your best blunders, stucks, and mega whoops! Think you've got a whoops! that can top what you see here? Send a high-res digital photo measuring at least 1600 by 1200 pixels (or 2 megapixels) along with your interesting story to whoops@4wheeloffroad.com. And those of you who still prefer the traditional way to mail, send us your prints and story to Whoops! at 4-Wheel & Off-Road, 6420 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90048.

Trick Trapper
My '94 F-150 was yet another victim of the tank trap. The hole was way deeper than I thought, and the ruts were even deeper!

Without Lime

Quick Change
It's amazing how fast a trail can change in the Great Northwest. I powered through this hole just a few weeks prior with no problems!
