Default Stuck...Winter is here, your best shot?

With Winter upon us I'm sure many of us have some "interesting" shots of our trucks in action in the white stuff. Here is mine in an unfortunate situation. Attempting to pull out my tractor, I got both stuck!! The truck slid back further than I had anticipated and that killed me. There was an ice layer under all this snow. Ugh. Good news, with the help of my Durango they all came out. Mopar to the rescue!

only time i ever got my truck stuck was when i first got my truck... it had the crappy goodyears. i drove over a snowbank in the morning when it was cold. i spent the day washing my truck and by the afternoon it was in the 60's. when i tried to back out she sunk right into the soft slippery snow and didnt move.
my brother had to pull me out with his GMC... it had a hell of a time too. lol

but this last snowstorm we had almost 10 inches i could plow through anything!

Not stuck, but we had to use a front end loader to clean out the driveway before we could get into camp.
