who put that snow bank there

driven along today on a narrow road with a couple feet of snow on both sides and along comes a car that is taking its fare share of the road and then some. i move over and catch the bank and it sucked me in... of course they just kept on going. called my friend who just got unstuck 15 min before i got stuck and he coulnt even budge my truck. so when it was all said and done with i had to break out the m54 5ton mil truck.

Man I envy you! I always loved the 5ton over the M900s when I was in Combat Comm. No one liked driving a stick so I always got to use the one assigned to my unit. How did you score that one?

Those snow banks are deep on the side of the roads.

At least you had something to pull you out with.

Cars and trucks are no match for mil stuff. Ive drug alot of stuck rigs out with the M35. None have won the tug of war yet- cept a cletrac model 55 bulldozer...... So I turned around and winched it.



Nice 5 tonner btw
