Exclamation I GOT STUCK! *links to my Pics*

Wow did i get my truck stuck! I was so hung up on a drop off into a mudd slip, it took two days of digging and winching to get it out. I was going way to slow and should have nailed it when i just crept into the mudd and stopped when my crossmember caught the tree roots on the ledge of this mudd slip. I have driven this same slip many a times and never been stuck. Here are some links to some pics. Hope you like them!


That tell tell sign your stuck, standing in awe of the moment.

I would have just drove it around with the mud on it for a few days.
