Stuck on HW17

[omnipresence2877]

I just got my buggy, drove through a tunnel and then the next map loaded. At the next scene I'm stuck. I don't see a path to get over the mountain, the road has been blown away and those critters keep killing me. I did try shooting my buggy through the water with my gravity gun but I'm sure I'm missing something.

Highway 17 goes right through my town.

A screen shot would help.

i'm guessing that you need to find the turbo button and jump over the blown away bridge? screenshot?

Screen shot helps indeed. You can post hem at http://www.imageshack.us/ and paste the link here. Most of the time you indeed have to jump over something, once you should also put some blue drums under the water to rebuilt the old jumping ramp.

So long.

I tried the turbo button but the jump is too long (I've already used it once before). This is the scene that has some pumping thing that when I use my 'e' button on it the light goes from green to red but eventually goes back green. Not sure if I'm supposed to be out of the buggy at this point. I'll get a screen shot when I'm able to play again but I'm hoping someone knows where I'm talking about so I can jump right back on.

Spoiler

Those blue barrels where on the waterskiff area.

On topic: If you are indeed getting attacked by the ant lions still, then you must use the turbo button to jump the gap made by the broken bridge

Is this pump thing near a house? If so, bust through the nearby fence, and continue on your way in the buggy.

Yeah, it's near a house thing. I thought I tested that fence with the buggy but I guess I missed the "sweet spot". I'll give that a try when I get home. Thanks everyone.
