good ole dodges
just thought that i had to share with you guys. the other night i was out and about and saw a dodge buried in the ditch. so figuring the nice guy that i am will go help him out come to find out that it was a cummins.hooked up the tow straps and one try got the cummins out, my truck didnt even break a sweat. he was very grateful but im sure was a little dissapointed to be shown up by a powerstroke.

Good story bob, but just remember, it could always be the other way around. Stuck is stuck and you just never know.
I was really impressed the last time I was just bad. my 99 f250 was buried, and so was my friends 91 f150. We called a friend with a lifted 00 4x4 f350 and he got stuck as well.
my bro-in-law showed up with his 04 4x4 f150 and (with all of us tied together) pulled us all out. it was embarrassing to see a little f150 pulling out 2 bigger trucks +1. that 5.4 f150 gained my respect that night. at least it was another ford.

AMEN!!!! Last month, I was working with the Park County Sheriff's dept, seizing some horses on a road that never gets plowed. Well the had a snow plow go out there and cut a path. But what the plow driver didn't know, is that about 3 ft on the right side, his blade plowed off the edge of the road. Made it look like road, but was nothing but snow over a 2ft ditch. I was pulling a 30ft gooseneck with 12 horses on board, trying to get past a deputies car, and the right side sunk into the ditch... I tried, but I could only go forward or backward...but could not get OUT of the ditch. So a rancher there with his fancy Dodge 3500 dually had to pull me out....man...got some ribbing for that one. But...I HAD A TRAILER! hehe It's ok...we give each other trouble all the time.

in high school I drove a Datsun 2wd king cab truck (HAHAHA) and I got stuck bad. A Chevy S-10 Blazer got stuck attempting to pull me out, then a FORD Bronco (old square style) pulled us both out! Gotta love it!
