Default Pulled out a Chebie.....

....DUMP TRUCK that is! [sm=yikesomg.gif]

Loaded with 14 cu/yds of top soil!

I was having it delivered to the house for the wife's garden and needed him to come around the back. I showed him the access road and told him to avoid this one section near the drainage that is always soft and water filled. Well, where does he go, THE ONE DEEP SECTION.

So here is this dump truck, sitting almost to the axles in mud, loaded with dirt..............Let's see what the CTD can really do.

Well, it turned out to be not that exciting, as I yanked him out like he wasn't even back there. Out of the mud and uphill, no less. [sm=icon_ladiesman.gif]

Another one of those, "I wish I had the camera moments"

Believe it or not, Its up to ypu cause I have no pics. A few months ago A mobile home mover was settinga 56ft single wide on my sisters property. It was kinda wet so of course he got STUCK, Truck, mobile home and all!!! The Dodge CTD 4x4 12 valve that hauls all the blocks and what not to set the trailer up, Hooks up to the whole shootin match and pulls the truck, mobile home and all to dry ground. Only about 30ft, but still I was impressed. The CTD owner looked like a Banny rooster strutin around after the pull.

No, actually it was in the house attached to the computer. I was taking that video off of it from the exhaust.

The guy was nice enough to try and get it to the back of my house, so I didn't want to go,....... "Hey, do you mind keeping your dump truck there in the mud, so I can get my camera and make fun of you in a forum?"

I would have ended up with a garage full of fertilized top soil. [:'(]
