Thumbs up Ford Tough !!!

I will never sell my F-250 V-10

All during the weekend I was off-roading and pulling out trucks left and right w/ ease, this truck is just a monster w/ the mud tires I got.


My buddy got his 92 Chevy 1500 w/ a 9 inch lift and 38's stuck and called me up. He wouldn't tell me how bad it was till i got there. This thing was hanging over a 6 foot drop ditch on the front passenger side w/ a solid wall behind the tire allowing no reverse and his rear driver side tire was over 2 feet in the air. A-arms and transfer cross beam all dug in and high centered. I told him we wouldn't get it out unless we used a high lift bumper jack to lift that lowered tire out of the ditch and put a 8 foot 2x8 under it accross the ditch, we couldn't get those tools so we just decided to pull .Mud was extremely slippery clay, I pulled and pulled and tugged and couldn't get it but we put a stock Jeep Wrangler in between us help hold the tension while I tugged and we got her in about 10 tugs ( I even ripped the jeeps bumper off on one side, haha). All this happened while my buddies huge *** truck had no reverse what so ever. So when it comes to pullin...this truck definately sits in the spotlight. This was spur of the moment so I forgot my camera cuz I really wanted to get pics and vids, sorry.

Nice to hear Devildog tell your buddy to get rid of his Chebby and by a real FORD TOUGH TRUCK. It figures the Jeeps (Dodge) bumber would be the only casualty.LOL

Congrats on the bragging rights, devildog!

And it's sort of like just going out for a short jaunt and seeing flying saucers and bigfoot all at the same time...that's when you need a camera!
