What's the dumbest thing you've done to you're PT's.
The set up to my story: It's been extermely cold here in southwest North Dakota, and we've gotten way more than average snowfall. I've got piles of snow right next to my driveway going back to my garage. Temperature on given night is 28 degrees F below zero air temp with a 20 mile per hour wind, giving a windchill of about -40 degrees F. Story: Coming home from grocery store with 9 year old daughter in back seat, I head up the icy driveway towards the garage. Due to all of the snow, I'm hugging the side of the house and clip the vinyl siding corner post with the rear fender of the car. Outcome: 1. Vinyl siding corner posts don't do well from a car rub when temperature is 28 degrees below zero. 2. Paint on fender of PT chips and cracks really easy at 28 degrees below zero. 3. 9 year old daughter can't wait to tell Mom what Dad did to the house and my poor PT!

That sounds almost like what I did. Car was in the garage. Daughter and I got in and she wanted to see the neon lights I had just installed under the seats. I turned them on for just a minute. Then I started the car and proceeded to back up. Only problem is that I never raised the garage door. Bent the garage door panel. Panel not made anymore; had to replace the whole door plus the one on the other side of the garage. Also cracked the clear coat on the bumper.
