If it was a Ford, chevy or some Toyota I would understand Doug. But to post a picture of a dodge getting stuck really hurts. I have to say You have to be usung photo shop or MS paint. Can't be real.

Heheheh, I can handle the ribbing, my fault, bad tires and a deep wet area, but the subaru is an insult, you gotta be from oregon to understand
I would dig and jack and put a truckload of rock under it before I would let a Exploder or a bub pull it out

 what a mess, Doug! I bet that thing can sling some mud 
Of course, I did see some guys try to move a moving truck out of mud a few years ago at the Walnut Grove Aquarium

its all about the tires and not hesitating in sloppy stuff, considering how fast it dug in and the amount of flingage of mud, a hemi wouldnt have helped any
Unfortunatley this craps about 2 ft deep with standing and running water so even 20" wheels may not have helped, inless they were shod with tall skinny knobbys
My next dodge will not be a hemi, nor a wimpy 318, hell it wont even burn gas and yah it will have a winch

I got it home...took a couple of trips. That is why our Zen master created fold down sheets, tarps, and shopvacs.
My friend that is the greensmaster and heavy equipment dude has a crashed GMC pickup with a twin that is not running. We hauled the broken one to the dump and then spent a few hours stripping it when the GM was out of town. Give me a month and I got a red, green and white paneled wood truck that will purr like a kitten.

Oh yeah..I made it into work through the slush and stuff..but umm several trucks were stuck or crashed.
My undercarriage is not a pretty sight but going with hardcore Hankook snow and slush tires combined with German engineered dynamic stability control seems to work. Gonna use the truck to haul wood, and the Beemer to haul ass.
