    @bennyboy831

    To air down take your key, press on the valve, and let air out for approximately 90 seconds each tire. Should get you in the ballpark of 20 psi.

    Grab sticks, Wood, floor mats, your tailgate pad, anything you can find to throw it under your tires and grab traction. You want to mitigate the mud with objects for traction the best you can.

    If you get anxious take a step back and breathe. Slow is fast.

    If you do attempt to try and drive out, left foot on the brake about 15-20% and it’ll help act like a locker for just a little better traction.

    Good luck! Keep us posted.
