I can't post a picture right now, but if I haven't posted a picture in the next day remind me of this one. I have a picture of my front bumper of my jeep attached to a tow strap that was just ripped off the front of my jeep. Good times. Lost a hydraulic clutch hose that day as well. Got stuck and some fool left a 1 inch steel pipe in the mud and this pipe put a hole right through my transfer case. Don't even get me started on this subject.

No wonder I got my ass whipped so much as a kid. I was a Bad kid apparently.

And what it cost to fix it!

Alrighty then! As far as unsticking, it came right out. So he lost some points there but I still think the artistry is there. Here are the pics so let the judging begin.


1. Yes, the rear tire is floating in the air.




2. I missed by thaaat much.




3. Lost the other side view mirror now.

Seeing as how there's a whole lot of road there, and he still managed to get it off and that far in the ditch, You got to give credit for a high degree of difficulty (got to work pretty hard to get that far off the road with so much room to work with), but take away a little for not being really mired down in mud. The right rear in the air gives a little back though, so I'm giving a 6.7 on that one.

Does having to exit from the roof give you more points?

gotta know when to say when, give up and go get the chains....instead of diggin & diggin...even though that IS a digger and you would think you could dig and drag yourself out that is STUCK!

4dawgma, was he txting or something....that's the driveway! not like a slick muddy road or anything where he would have slid off the road... or was he fire-hawgin it and it got away from him

If I were a bettin man, I'd say he rounded that curve a little hot and slid off the road, that isnt really what I would call stuck. He just needed a hand to get his tire back on the actual road.

not a curve behind him close enough to slide off the road from (at least that far down the drive, unless he was fish tailing..and if that's the case i'm impressed he lasted that long before hitting the ditch) and not enough room to tail-spin it from the curve you see in the pic in front of him...

My brother buried a JD 4020 to the axles one time on the back side of a place trying to bush hog shooting lanes. buried so deep that bush hog was picked all the way up and was still on the ground. Also, made for a about a 1 mile walk up and down hill to get to the road. Almost buried a JD 7610 trying to get to it. It took a 2 1/2 ton army truck with 35k lb winch to get to it and get it out. And about 24 hours to find all the people and equipment together.

A helicopter would have been the least labor intensive.

This happened today when one of our truck drivers didn't listen to directions. This truck was loaded with beans, 83,564 lbs was the trucks total weight.
