That's why I carry a big length of 7500# rope in the back of the Tahoe.....to rescue Ram's out of ditches, etc.!! 
Doug, from the looks of that mudhole, if it makes you feel better, I think the Ram would've gotten stuck with new tires!!!

We gotta add unsticking vehicles to the TRT Ironman contest..mud or snow.
Bring it baby! I got shovels for all conditions and am a ripped machine. Not to mention..I fashioned hooks for my garage sale comealong out of 1/4 inch rebar. I do need a travois to haul wood though and wonder if the TRT Yugo is still around..I can cut her midway and use the roof as a sled.
Still got wood splinters all over my poor oh so wonderful German engineering masterpiece.

OUch, that really hurts, Now that eveyone has had their daily dose of laughter, My bud drove out in his 69 Power wagon. While whating for him I jacked the front up witht he Hi LIft and stuffed rocks under the front tires. After stretching out 80' of tow strap to reach my parking spot(it rained all night, so its nastier now) I started the truck and grabed 4lo in anticipation of being pulled while easing out.
Anyway I pulle dthe lever into 4L and engaged reverse to engage the transfer case, to my surprise the truck went back, so I flicked it into drive and SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE it crawled out its own
