I'm sure everyone reading this can relate:
A good friend calls this morning, it rained quite a bit last night, and in his haste while turning around on a dead end road, he managed to put his back tires onto soft ground... 5-10 minutes pass as he manages to back further and further off the road, sinking all 4 wheels, and lodging himself almost up to the doors. (picture okierover). No big deal, except that it is his work truck, a 350 superduty turbo diesel extended cab/bed (translation to me: really big truck).
I backed my bone stock '90 Classic into the mess, as the road was now too far away to effectively reach, finally used my only offroad purchase to date- kinetic recovery rope & shackles... hooked in, dropped into 4 lo and out we crawled. 1st try.
Rover Victory!
