I wish it would rain enough here for me to get stuck. Even the tumble weeds are yellow.

Enjoy it while you can.

Thanks!

THANKS! I had a friend a couple of miles down the dirt road hear about my problem and he showed up with a JD 2240 or something like that. Using a 5/8" cable he proceeded to pull out my brother-in-law first. Then my truck then my tractor. Talk about embarrasing. I think I'm going to invest in either a bigger tractor or a winch Thanks again and if I can ever be of help please call me. You have my cell # now

try rocking it back and forth. and if your tractor has a bucket use it to get the tractor out and try getting your trucks out again. take some pictures also try putting logs in front of the tires.

Trust me I tried all the tricks including boards under the tires of the truck and the bucket on the FEL of the tractor just pulled mud. It was just too darn soft. In a previous post I stated it was a JD 2240 but it was over 80HP so I don't know what is was but it had some torque I have pics of my mistakes. I took them while trying to find help but ended up forgetting about the camera when help showed up
