What were you useing for a strap? Can't tell from the grainy vid but it looked like a chain. With a snatch strap that should have come out in 1 pull.

Another video set to cheesy muzak of someone pulling out a jeep. So what. If you wheel you get stuck sometimes.
One day a jeep will pull you out. That is, if you wheel. I hope he posts it all over youtube.

The truth has been spoken. Everyone gets stuck....and to be honest, I don't give a sh*t what/who recovers me.

My friend in his jeep pulled me out monday when we went offroading. lol People get stuck, both jeeps & land rovers.

That is why I hate in reviews for M/T tires how people comment "these tires are awesome I never get stuck." Really bugs me. I used to read a lot about the tires on offroaders.com

Default Water pipes

Water pipes


I am thinking about buying some wholesale water pipes from this company in China Wholesale smoking - Tobacciana Items With FREE Shipping
but I am not sure if they are legal to bring in to the states? What are the laws on water pipes, bongs, and pipes?

After seeing the video I started reading through the replies waiting for the shi... stuff to fly. I have been there though so I can't say too much. I pulled a stock ZJ out of some mud then drove around further out it in to turn around (just to show off) before leaving. Thought it was the greatest thing ever, pulled a Jeep out and drove through the mud he got stuck in. Then one day I got so stuck it took a Jeep Cherokee and a Toyota 4 Runner hooked in tandem to pull me out, and it changed my view on things.

Its not about who pulled you out, because you have to remember your pulling from the area with more traction. If you were in the same slop he was and pulled him out than maybe it would be different. So good job on getting him out, but its not all that you think it is. Coming from someone that has been there too.

(Surprised no one has questioned the power lines in the background...)
