When I used to run a wrecker, I put the wheel lift down to be a makeshift wheelie bar, (which that truck didn't have) second, I didn't leave the pavement for winch outs, If I couldn't reach you, s.o.l

winches, like anything else, are not a pancea.... first employ shovel in hard ground.... ah well, if you can't be a good example, be a good warning ;)

I laughed then vomited.
???

I am mauled by a ford f350. Self destructed dumber than what is in the vid...bent frame.
the last strong one I had was in the 70s models.
the real weight and density is non-existant...err.. except for the land rover apparently. stuck like a boot in a mud puddle.

imagine the the land rover is heavier than the ford.. with the tow rig in the back. :

Which of these Mensa candidates decided that winching it out from the opposite direction of which it got stuck was a good idea?

The doofus to the right of the wrecker should be seriously slapped for not giving the high-sign when the frame first started to deform!

Haha. I was waiting for the Ford's tires to spin like the Chevy's was doing. No wonder Ford had to go and build "the strongest truck frames" out there in there newer trucks.

The "watcher" definitely was clueless!!

Did any of you guys notice the related vid after this one finished?

Tell me if this guy values his life? Who would stand in front of a big truck wrecker with its front wheels 5 feet off the ground trying to do work?!?!?!?!? Crazy!!

Ford Truck owners - definitely can't fault them for their... loyalty
