Taking the kiddies to the snow gets ugly. Here's the story from the family here: www.staciealbright.blogspot.com

Pretty cool, Stacie! I love how the Jeeps just motored around their truck like it was no big deal. Been there, done that. A few weeks ago I pulled a lady out of the ditch in my Jeep during a snowstorm. She couldn't believe that I purposely drove down into the deep ditch she was stuck in and then drove out the other side, backed up, hooked up, and pulled her up the higher, steeper side of the ditch into a field instead of back onto the road into oncoming traffic. I stayed hooked and pulled her about 100 yds to a field drive, made sure she was ok with no damage, and went on my way to work. Not as daring, but impressive, nonetheless.

Thanks for posting!

Nah, I'm beyond that. Used to do that on the weekends during hunting season when I had my old Toy 4x4. The city slickers in their 4wd trucks with street tires just couldn't handle the redjaw clay. I'd clear $2-300 a weekend on them.

Now I just do it because it's the right thing to do, don't charge anything. Unless they're idiots, then it's $50 or they can use my cell to call a $200 wrecker.
