last year I ditched the 88 dak soo bad it took the tow truck almost an hour to get me out. I had to go there the next morning and show him where the truck was. cause it was atleast a 5-6' deep ditch and it barried itself. I thought if I gave her more gas I could get back out, but I just ended up going 20' into the ditch and almost hit the fence in the field.


the tow truck guy was not happy

My brother decided he would drive my truck yesterday, much rain the day before. Goosed too much when he was already at 50, slid out of control down onto a muddy 40 degree angle ditch. Didn't try 2 wheel just threw it into 4 wheel and pulled out no sliding at all. 4 miles down the road an f-150 was in the same predicament, his tires were about 6inches deep in the mud and still throwing up more. We pulled over, hooked up the straps and tugged him out.
