I've had two on this car.
First I was driving home from work on a sleety, wintry night coming to a fairly steep hill to a blind intersection, someone pulled out in front of me and it was all I could do to get across the yellow line and not tbone them. I came back across the road and slid into a driveway cutout end of a curb at about 5mph Simply could not stop/turn at that point nice and icy. Technically not an r3v since my tires weren't bald and less than a month old. I was somewhat fortunate in that it happened only a few blocks from my house, and it was all downhill, so I pushed my car and slowly rolled to the garage. Cost me $120 for pan, pump and gasket. Changing an oil pan on xmas eve, fun times.
Next one happened in january. Very snowy and you know when the plows go across a street, they leave piles of ice etc. across the road. I'm pretty sure I cracked my pan on one of them, I came out the next morning to go to work and noticed a large trail of oil under my car got the skidplate ready for this winter.
