No longer stuck in Riverside. Ratchet strap saves the day despite better judgement.

    You’re lucky. Honestly, you weren’t entirely too stuck but this could have been an entirely different story. One with a possible life flight and extensive damage to your truck or the good samaritans.

    Please, read up on safe recovery methods.

    Does your truck have a rear locker?

    Locker or LSD. The off-road should have an electronic locker and the sports get an LSD
