I did that a few weeks ago...but I can go alil higher on an incline because I have 6" lift and 35s..so I'm a bit higher. The incline was so steep..that my front bumper almost hit before the tires started climbing...it looks like you have a faily long drop down hitch. I have an average hitch ..1" or 2" drop..and I ground it into the cement climbing the incline. I was only in 2wd and I couldn't back up to get down..wouldn't move with the hitch in the cement..so I had to get my friend to hop out and lock my hubs. The truck was so high off the ground he had to put his butt on the floor and jump down. His face was at the bottom of my truck when he was standing there. Felt like we were ready for a space shuttle lunch.

Most all of these banks are higher than my bumper, it takes a few slow runs and then one throttle mash to get up them, they're usually like 4ft walls before I touch them. And mustang, I know the feeling of having the hitch dig in. I once tried to get up this pile of cinders in a stone parking lot, got up, bottomed out on the top, tried to back down and was stopped by the hitch. I got out and looked and my bumper was literally 1/2" off the ground, and the hitch was nowhere to be seen. I had to slam the gas and dig a 1ft deep gash in the ground to get off. I went back to get a picture, but of course after the pile being there for like 5 years, it was gone.
