Are you aired down? Your tires still look like they're at normal pressures.

I never air down. i put it in 4 hi and it just floats over the thick dunes. i have 305's so max pressure is only 65 psi. I run them at 50-55. The z71 was buried...I was dragging him out with the sand up to the bottom of my rims.

And to think I got stuck in the sand with the quad trailer hooked up.. Just snowed 4" ontop of the thawed sand. Unloaded the toys and was able to rock it out of the holes I dug. And I'm running 325-60r18's

All the drivers I have pulled out of snow banks while snow plowing. Once I pulled a jacked up 250 out of a snow bank. She was to worried to call her boyfriend for assistance as this was his truck.

My dad got my truck stuck once and had one of the town dump trucks hook a chain to him on the hitch and pull him out,he bent up the loop for the trailer chains so bad the chain wouldn't come off so my dad threw the chain over the tailgate and it dented and scratched the crap out of my gate...I got it fixed a while ago but he said the dump truck yanked the crap out of the truck to get it out. The plow was stuck in a snow bank and he was on ice apparently.

Did he attempt to use the plow to get himself unstuck? I have almost been stuck myself and use the plow to get freed.

Most of the 'stucks' I've seen were from drivers that didn't know momentum was the best prevention !
When going through challenging stuff, I was most worried when speed was slowest.

Back in the day had ridden dirt bikes over stuff I couldn't walk through just by going for it

(course there WERE a few of those that LOOKED passable, but then ...... )

I believe the problem here lies somewhere between the steering wheel and the pedals...

Maybe next time he won't ZIG when he should ZAG...

Not sure probably but he was trying to push the snow bank farther away from the driveway because we got a ton of snow that year. There was a slight hill so either way he had to get the front end unstuck then back up the hill lol. I think the dump truck was driving by as he got stuck and offered, he wasn't stuck for more than 5 min he said.
