Kyle, that sucks. I've been that guy, phone calls from your dumb friends at all hours.
If you didn't get the truck out yet, try climbing rope. I got a lot of trucks out with it. I would loop it back and fourth between the two trucks a few times.and then I would pull. The rope would stretch and then retract and yank the stuck vehicle right out.

Havent heard from him yet today to see if he got it out, also doesn't help that his starter died during out last attempt to pull it out! Thing that really sucks is that even though we had over 50 feet of rope, i was still at the edge of the swamp, made some nice ruts myself!

Well... lol. some times it will pour whitish blue smoke out of the exhaust but run fine. other times, it will have 0 power from takeoff, 0 boost and pour black smoke out of the exhaust. usually its just taking off from a stop, but today if he let off the throttle while cruising, then got back into it, it would chug along and sound like it was going to die and eventually youd hear the turbo start spooling
in this video you can hear it stumble a little before taking off, but that was nothing. usually we cant even make it through intersections without going more than 5 mph
