[QUOTE="SoSmoked, post: 42008, member: 1144"] Ya The feeling of being that dug in leaves you pretty helpless inside I will never visit that spot again without a good shovel and those sand ramps you can put under the tires A winch would be an exceptional idea as well It was just crazy I knew the sand was deep but I never expected that And such a crazy feeling going so fast to a dead stop felt like I hit quick sand and I knew I was in deep shit when the entire front end was sitting on the skid plates and my rear on my differential For all of those who haven't gotten stuck yet, learn from my lose of virginity and always 4x with another truck if you lack a winch Truthfully I think even if I had another 4x truck to get me out it would have left him stuck as well I had a rancher on a quad stop and ask if I was ok, then continue to tell me he had no truck or tractor he was willing to bring into that soft sand,"would only leave both of us ****** in the wind" he said and then gave me a good luck nod and buzzed off All in all a great day and I learned a good lesson... Don't take the terrain for granted and realize, even the raptor, has it's limits It may be a truck born in Baja, however they forget to mention it can die there as well [/QUOTE]
