or...i can just have my fun now, just go with a 4x4 and not alone, and when i get my 4x4, that'll have a winch....by far the heaviest stuff ive been through....pics dont do a good justice for it, but mud was up past the door. you couldnt open the passanger side doors..so my friend in the passanger seat crawled out my side and jumped across the mud. it was fun though. trucks a mess. gotta clean it next weekend when i do my cab roof lights

Man that is ballsy in a 2WD, good for you! I guess if you got friends around with good rigs its not a problem. i don't think i'd do stuff like that with my 4x4 cuz i got noone to pull me out if i get her stuck.

ya i was the first one out there for that day and i was a pretty nervous because i got stuck and no one was around, but a few minutes later 2 guys were out there mudding too and they came over and tried to pull me out but failed....so my buddy came about 20 minutes later with his excursion and we just tied tow ropes around hid front tow hooks and around my frame in the rear....because i couldnt get pulled from the front because i just got worse and worse and you went forward. 1 rope snapped, but we got it out far enough to get a shorter rope on it and i got pulled the rest of the way. fun day though

Looks like a good time. But it also looks like you just parked it there to pose for those pics. Doesn't even appear to be any sling on the truck. Glad you had help getting her out!
