    The ones around here wouldn't, at least the last time one was asked. Said it was a liability and they were not allowed. Truck wasn't "planted" either, got it out with a UTV

    Still burns dad's butt

    Maybe they changed rules or some are willing to bend the rules for the good

      Man I just saw this and I’m about to head into work. If you’re not out this afternoon let me know and I’ll come do what I can. Got tow straps and a big dodge on 38’s.

        I let the warden know this morning i was stuck and trying to get it out. He didn’t bring up pulling me out, however I did t ask.
        Do you think a 4wd 1/2 ton pickup will pull you out? Or will you need a wrecker?

          I don’t think a 1/2 ton will. I’m setting sideways across the road, so you can’t really pull me straight back. Plus, since I messed it up more trying get out, so the front is dug down.

          I am going to try and use the chain come along to pull it about 1-2 feet. Then I should be able to get traction back on my rear tires and back up in 4 low.

                Hopefully, you've made it out by now. The local Game Warden will also pull you out; I know from personal experience
                I laughed at this harder than I should have

                    Use the chain hoist to pull down on the rear end and help you get traction. Then back up as far as you can and do it again, eventually you should work your way out.

                          Have you tried the board and ratchet strap trick?

                              While I was checking my fence I got my 11,500lbs service truck stuck in the mud! Using a 2X4 and some ratchet straps I was able to do a self recovery.Donate ...
