Super Duty to the Rescue

My buddy and me had the pleasure of pulling out a 4x4 lifted 2500 Chevy and 2 Dodge Durango's out of the mud. I wished I had a picture to show. It took both our F-250's to pull the Chevy out. It was nose dived into a ditch. I'm a Navy Cop and we have the Durango's as patrol vehicles. Those things are garbage!!!
Well, just wanted to share a Ford story!

Good one! However, I don't want to laugh too much as a lot of us have been in the reverse situation

What is wrong with Durangos? I don't know anything about them except they're Do*g*s

Keep up the good work, MarkF250! I've pulled a few people out of sticky situations, as well -- to be honest, I love thos types of situations. I'll never forget the GMC plow truck I pulled out of a driveway; 4x4 Low and a towing strap is all my F-250 needed. The guy was so worried about getting stuck again, I gave him my cell phone # in case he needed a "rescue vehicle".

Yea, I was in the reverse situation when I first got my SD. A cheby and a ford tractor had to pull me out. Since then I have pulled 2 Z71's out of the mud, and a jeep out of sand dunes, to redeem myself.

Thumbs up Super Duty to the Rescue

I had a similar instance but it involved a F250. My neighboy had his 5th Wheel hooked up in the down side of his yard. Well with all of the rain he set it in to the axels. Truck and trailer. I backed up to the truck with my F350 (2wd) and pulled the entire rig out of the mud. I think it was more a matter of him making a poor decision, I guess even the Ford guys do that once in a while.
The nice thing was that I barely had to hit the throttle, almost idled him out. The other next door neighbot had just tried with his (ich) Chebby and just spun the tries.

Ford First, Last, and Forever.

I just thought that you might enjoy that one>
