That looked bad from the beginning never load a truck on loose dirt duh
Not loose dirt, sand. Grass was on top so you wouldn't know until it's too late.
Do those walmart boots hurt your feet? What were you trying to pull? Can you jack it up and put that block under the tire, then fill the dirt back in ? You need a 4 wheel drive
Jack the trailer off the truck so the truck can walk up out of there. Might also try a hunk of carpet under the tire.
Dang.. with the meat on those tires, it didn't take long to do that either! Sorry about the dilemma man.
dang boss .... yeah as bear said you need a 4x4 .....
Your just not using the right cuss words Tater...Call it a fother mucker.
If that doesn't work try "You Some Biscuit"Quote:

sorry tater, been there
And it's not even for sale, believe me at this point I'd Probadly pull my fuel pump off my truck put it on that tow truck load other on the trailer and tow the whole mess home
lmao sorry but that was funny to me, I guess its still daylight there, im sure you have looked at all your options but can you run your trailer winch to something behind you and pull yourself out backwardsQuote:

No really it is funny, but even funnier when it's not you. Oh well make a good story some day
Tater Don't feel bad, I see people do it all summer long on my sandbar, an there is no grass on sand here.
I do laugh as I call a tow truck for them tho, cause..you really shouldn't be driving on my beach unless you got 4wd. Silly tourists.

Tater- drawing up plans for winch bumper right now. And going to hf after work to buy 12k winch !
Who would expect to find quick sand in a backyard in Kansas ?
I will send you a 20% off coupon if you need it...price might be down to $299 again at the first of the month.Quote:

Seems every boot's got those deep grips in them now days. I like the good ol timey kind, that gripped without the deep grooves. Used to you didn't hardly see the deep ones, in fact, the first ones I ever had was some from an old Army-Navy store, and they were jungle boots. Anyway, your boot prints all around reminded me of that Walmart trip, I musta walked around there an hour trying to find a pair that didn't hurt ; )
At least it's not raining. :)Quote:

damm man, glad you got it out dude
All's well that ends well , right ?
ive done that since the place i do my work and store my trailer is sandy
And this quite an honor to have my post end up being smf topic of the day, its a first for me.
Tater- sand bad for loading up pickups but pretty good on beach to drink beer !
Sounds like a good excuse to have a couple beers..been their twice this year....back up at an old school house to get an aluminum boat out of a teee line and she sunk up to the axels, 6 times i made a mess of that yard, glad it was my moms place and not a costomers. 6500lbs truck. 2nd time this spring backing up to pull a mangled camper out of a tree line, back up a truck length to far and she sunk up to the axels, I really need to get my front shaft fixed and the new winch on the trailer
I put the coupon code in your strikes again thread, page 7 or 8.
1st question, no comealongs? I've done it using the comealong to work the truck back and forth so I could build up under the wheels. all you have to pull is 6in so you can get a rock under it, then pull 6 in back to get a rock under the front side of the tire and repeat.

why didn't you have one of these?

or one of these?
Going 4WD - The Bush Winch - Wheel Winch - YouTube
this was the one I was looking for.
That wheel winch sounds cool but I bet a 12k hf winch and material to build a winch bumper would be cheaper and easier to easy.
I agree.
Was looking at those hf winch's the other day. Large selection of weight ratings.
