Truck thru the ice eastside !!!

[Live2fish5]

this thread has just gotten a bit too stupid now? anyone agree? whether the comments by the driver were true or fake to those who said A THIRD PARTY IS NOT LIABLE is very RIGHT and whether or not the comment made by the driver are true or false doesnt depict whether the truck is covered or not? its a gov ran business not a high school club... "ooh I think that he was happy" that he wrote off his 3 day old truck.. and- OMG thats not coverd under MPI and make him pay the $40000 which the trucks worth!!" is just dumb.. and for the guy who "contacted" his buddy at mpi.. get your buddy, yeah.. the lvl 1 clerk? to tell his boss this guy is VERY optimistic about living through a near death experience! and on the off side this whole post should be deleted since its getting out of hand this is the holiday season not time to be.... this way?

If this is that much of a problem to people contact mpi and get your info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What happened, happened! There are many reasons that could have caused this incident. I for one along with 4 other half tons in my group drove in the exact same spot prior! Until I hear the story from the driver of the truck what happened then whatever! Maybe it was a one ton truck in front? maybe temp and ice cond? or speed?
Everyone just use caution and don't assume!!!!!!! Its your choice what you feel is safe for travel and I for one is not recommended which is the safest!

The bottom line is a truck went thru the ice and it's a good reminder that the risk sometime is not worth the reward. I for one will be walking out onto the ice anywhere until we have a good solid 2 weeks of -20c weather.
Also a good reminder is how the people around pulled together and helped the guy who went thru. Wether you know the person or not when your out on the ice you have to look out for others.

See you on the Ice....

I know last year the hutterites built a wheel house that cost between 30 - 40 grand made out of stainless steel and the inside is all tongue and groove. I hear they are selling it so they can build a bigger one. I am going to try and get the pics from my son in law. He did a lot of work for them and the thing is amazing. Not sure if that was theirs or not.

Americans up here fishing

[flat liner]

They aren't fishing, they are just on the ice with a rod in their hand. You have to catch fish to be fishing and we all know they can't do that. Ha Ha , just joking Americans. Enjoy our waters as we enjoy your cheap merchandise as we ride out to Fargo to shop Sheele's.

I have a question about MPI & it has been bugging me for a few months now. Does MPI cover a car or truck if it falls through on lake Winnipeg ?? My parents are both so against me driving onto ice in the winter and are saying that they wont let me take their vehicles on the ice this winter because MPI doesn't cover it if it falls through   ( btw I'm only 17 so i dont have my own car yet! )

It all depends on your parents insurance plan. But most that are in the region of were ice fishing goes on cover it.
