Got stuck, dang Dodges

Slid off into a bar ditch after 3.5" of rain and got stuck up to the floor pan. Neighbors Ford would not budge the truck. Talked to the 75 year old man across the street with his Hemi and he just drove it like he stole it a pulled me out. I was impressed with his driving. Just though I would share in my misery.

Could have been worse. Could have been a Chevy that went to help. Although it likely would have failed in the attempt anyway.

It could have been a toyota, nissan, etc. I'm normally not that worried about what pulls me out, just getting out. My step dad bought a 10k mile marker and mounted it to the front of his 06 f250 specifically for me getting stuck.

LOL, nothing. Just did not expect him to drive it as hard as he did. I am glad he did or I will still be stuck.
