[QUOTE="criticalbass, post: 2031162, member: 711"] I used to have a '73 Ford half ton pickup with a posi. Pulled many 4x4s out of snow, sand, mud, and up some real steep riverbanks. I got it stuck once when I ventured onto what looked like solid ground but was actually real quicksand under some stuff that had blown over it. It stopped sinking when it was in about halfway up the door. Took a big four wheel drive tractor to pull me out. The real adventure was getting down to the hitch (real stout 2 inch receiver). Damn near drowned. Pulled a young man in a small car out of the snow west of Lawton one nasty day. He had slid off the road and was 'way out by the fence. He was in a tux and almost late for his wedding. I have never seen anyone so grateful. For several years I owned a K-5 Blazer. I drove it to work one day when drifts were up to a couple of feet. The parking lot had a large area which was drifted about twelve to fourteen inches deep. I put it in four wheel drive and made a slow circle through the drift with no touble. Unfortunately several people saw my tracks and assumed they could safely park there. They got in, but at quitting time them were stuck. I think I pulled six of them out. Never admitted making the tracks. [/QUOTE]
