I saw these guys on the side of the road in Stokesdale this morning and just had to stop and take a pic.

With all the hydraulics on that truck, I'd think they could get out pretty easy. I think I see an outrigger under the bed at the front. Just gotta use the old imagination. Or just use the crane to pick/push the truck foreward.
 
Thats awsome, I always see the ruts where these truck have been stuck all over the place. I seen a mofett with boggers on it today, I just had to take a pic. I figured it was one of the guys on here. lol
 
Ha, you just rolled up on em' and took a pic? I bet they were like,wtf.. look at this wise guy.
Do you know how they got out?
 
hmmm, where in Stokedale is that? I see a Speed Limit 5X sign, gotta be 220, 158, 68 or 65. Energy United, I'm guessing Rockingham County. We have Duke Power where I'm at.
 
All I can say is thank you it wasn't one of our trucks, but then again when they get stuck they just run the boom out and and dig in with the auger then pull with the truck on the rev limiter. Something to see for sure. Nothing they tear up surprises me anymore.

I saw the truck there and didnt know anybody was in it when I approached it with my camera. When I saw the guys in it I asked if they would mind if I took a pic and they kinda chuckled and said go for it. They said they had another truck coming to pull them out. I would have tried to help them but it looked like that truck exceeded the 8k lb ability of my winch.



Renegade, I think it was 158. It crosses belews creek and I was about 4 miles from kernersville on the other side of belews. The exact location was at a classic car and hotrod shop that was also a bait shop.

Dude, you should have at least tried, or at least hooked a strap to em and gave it a shot. Yea it may have been a 99.9% chance that it wouldn't work, but if it did, you and your Jeep would have instantaneously been declared BA's on a whole nother level


For instance back in the day when high school let out one afternoon some dude with a half ton pulling a trailer and car had ran off the road down an embankment into a muddy ditch so all of it was stuck. Well I decided to hook up to it with the Z71 and proceeded to pull the entire setup out of the mud, up the embankment, onto the road with alot of tire smokin to show off - right in front of like the entire school as they were leaving the parking lot - needless to say myself and my Z71 we're declared top dogs from that point forward . . . to bad it didn't help me any with the ladies :shaking:


Dangit, i just realized 5 years later I'm still trying to impress the ladies solely by the rigs I drive (well I have added the fohawk, earing, and tattoos) - maybe I need to change strategies . . . .

























nah :driver::burnout::Rockon:
