    Lets talk about 1st gen power , ( I pray one of you has a pic or vid of this !!)

    The scene :
    Greg has just burried his truck on an uphill section with sand.

    Doug (me) rolls back to where greg is to set up recovery

    Doug begins to pull Greg , after some brief wheelspin

    Doug hooks up & both trucks begin the steep ,sandy climb

    up & out of there....

    Doug notices that it feels like pulling dead weight

    After about 40 yards someone yells to Greg:

    "STOP!! , DUDE YOU'RE IN PARK !!!!!"


    Theres that letter "P" again...

    :facepalm::facepalm::smack::smack: :rofl::rofl::rofl:
