Lemme guess, you had to go get a John Deere to pull it out.....
lol
Just kidding, it's a chitty feeling when you get a MFWD tractor stuck! Hell he's got forks, stick'em in the ground and push it out!! I got a backhoe stuck once. Of course I was berated for it because you can't actually get a backhoe stuck. Dad almost apologized afterwards.....it was stuck. We had a tree down at work and we got the big idea of using the loader in an area the was a little swampy, well we found out it was a lot swampy and we sunk the damn thing up past the axles, if you moved it at all you could watch it sink a little more. there was no way to get another piece of equipment in there to pull on it, it was hopeless. We finally figured it out after hours of frogging around we would put some sticks under the bucket and lift the front wheels up and then cut up a bunch of wood to throw under them, then we would lift the bucket up until it contacted a large branch and lifted the back wheels up then cut up more wood to toss under. It took us a long time but we got that bitch out! Lucky sombitch! We ain't got no trees.

It's a classic so it's the cheaper model and don't have a lot of frills on it, no heated seats or steering wheel like my wifes car. That's the way I like my pickups! My F350 even has vinyl seats and a rubber floor mat. I like it much better than I did my previous Ram Longhorn Edition with all the bells and whistles. I looked for one with rubber floor but didn't find any from the south, I settled on a fancy pair of rubber floor mats. I was looking all over the south for a decent truck and this thing popped up local at a dealer cheaper than buying it and sending my SIL down to drive it back for me.

It took us a long time but we got that bitch out! Muskeg. No other I've ever seen. Once you cut enough of the top to fall in it could be who knows how deep under it. I stepped off a 6 wheeler a buddy stuck... we had put a few logs under in and they disappeared. I was glad I caught the handle as I stepped off in my waders as I went through and down my feet never touched bottom. Took us another day to come back and get it. My guess was it would be long gone out of sight by the time we got back. We were lucky. Since then he doesn't take out on his own in the dark.. LOL

Mud might have gotten in there in the Harvey flood, before it went to the lease. Think his pickup was made after Harvey. Didn’t see his follow up post. I also misinterpreted “off lease” from “off the lease”. Lots of old truck retire at the deer lease in Texas.

Stuck 'er in the creek once. Had to get my boots wet getting out, to walk a mile and a half back to the ranch to get the forklift. Extended the boom the whole 45 feet and tied a chain to the drawbar. Winched 'er out by retracting the boom.....
