A JLG 600S. In other words, a 4wd, 60 foot, 12k boom lift. And it wasn't just a little stuck. It's frame was sitting in the mud. Bout' to call a wrecker to pull it out, but I said aww what the hell. Buddy of mine sat the basket on the ground, extended the arm while driving forward while I kept a nice constant tug on it in 4lo, and after about 10 min (seemed like a year) it came right on out. Not bad for a vehicle half the size. In winter I hated my 180 stat, but I now realize how much I love it. I hate myself for lack of pics. Ill see what I can do tmrw for them.

That ten mins included much rocking of the lift, lots of back and fourth.
