Its called STUCK! Lol, I got two of the kinetic energy ropes now. Here's another stuck picture. It took a boat, 650ft of rope, and a track buggy to pull me out.

Reminds me of my oldest boy. I spent days fixing and detailing his YZ250 dirt bike. First day out he comes walking home and asks me to help him get his bike.
Threw a big hay rope in the back of my truck and off we go. I pull into a big abandoned gravel pit and he says, "There it is" and points to a big mud pit. All I could see was the handle bars. I sent him out to wrap the rope around the handle bars and when he was safely out of the way I dragged the bike onto dry ground, unhooked the rope and said, "See you at the house." 1968 Coronet R/T

We were running a Blown Big block chevy 8-71 into turbo 400 into two transfer cases unknown HP or Torque # Enough to twist axles in half every time truck got loaded down in thick mud and start really throwing the power to it. Our frame was made from multiple different size heavy wall boxed steel all home made stuff back in mid early 80s probably had a weight of 3 to 4 times as much as your build it was indestructible tank. but Back in 80s guys hadn't built with light weight stuff yet nor were custom made springs or shocks available yet.
