    Too many to list.
    I would of tried lifting the truck from the rear bumper with Jack or Hilift and then push it whichever direction you wanted to go. I had to do that several time with a gov vehicle and worked out well. Saved me from calling the tow truck. Also, do you have recovery boards? Those might of helped. I know hindsight is 20 20

    Don’t think traction boards would’ve helped. I had traction to go forward or backwards, but my issue was I kept slipping sideways towards the tree until it was too late. As far as the hi lift it mightve worked but I didn’t care enough to go through the effort. The mirror was only $40 (non oem) since I had just replaced it a month prior.

    It was a joke. Randy knows we weren't allowed to cut anything down where we were. Now if I were out hunting or somewhere else it would have been down

    Finally got this installed. Big thanks to Shaffer's Off-road in Alameda for being so quick! They had it done in a day!! My buddy and I have been talking about doing it ourselves for over a month. Scheduling and piece of mind prevailed, and I couldn't be happier!! So much fun to drive. The whine is definitely addicting already...

    Today I verified the H2/H4 operation. No, not for this shot. :) Final deer hunt of the year. Got wet and muddy. Ditto for the truck. Determined place would be great for elk. Last year during elk season, we determined the same area would be great for deer. That's why they call it hunting.

    Sister in law blew her tire on the 405 highway late at night in the rain, along with 9 other cars due to something in the roadway. She had her young daughter in the car and called me to help. I threw my aluminum floor jack and tire iron in the truck, grabbed my 1000 lumen strobing flashlight and went out and met her. So many disabled cars on the shoulder.

    Not a single person was changing their own tire. Not one.

    The car in front of her had 3 guys ~mid-20s and didn’t change their tire.

    I used my ultimate headlights and fogs to illuminate the work area along side the busy highway while swapping the shredded tire. We were pulling away as the first tow truck arrived on scene. I was just completely shocked at how many cars had a flat tire and yet nobody did anything about it.

    I always find that funny when I see people standing there on side of road while someone else changes their tire. Hate to be sexist but especially when it’s the guy with the big beard. I will say though that on my company car if I got a flat I’d prob just wait as I’m not sure I’m even allowed to change it on highway. Depends on where I am I guess.

    In this day and time, if your not one of them that truck, hunt , fish or something to do with outdoors, the only thing most of them can do is play games or punch buttons on phones. Sad generation coming up. I was in shop during supper welding some fellows clutch adjustment rod so he could get truck off highway. Of coarse ( No Charge)

    Ill never understand it, IMO part of owning a vehicle is knowing how to do simple service. Changing a tire, wiper blades, checking your oil. It just like people that own a home and don't have a few tools laying around. We had a lady in our Facebook neighborhood page that was bitching because her door knobs came loose and that her builder was to blame. She has a husband too...... I commented that I brought a tig welder home from work and welded mine together. hahahahaha

    Watch out for the sheeps heard, it keeps growing.
