Stuck Tacoma's-Lets see 'Em

come down here, im sure we can fix that. the hole i was in is one of the shallow ones.

 

You must not push it's limits

 

I forgot to mention "it doesn't get stuck bc it hasn't had the chance to go off pavement"

 

He gave it a valiant effort but just couldn't get out.

 

Silly 1st gen, don't you know that motocross tracks & jumps are for
dirt bikes ......

Hey I made it over the 3 others before this one....

 

My stuck. This is how I kicked off the new year getting stuck on Jan 2nd.

It got late and had to leave the truck there for the night. Crappy thing is the water kept flowing and it got worse when we tried to dig it out the next day. Had to call a off road tow company and pay $250.

 

What did they bring to get you out? I saw this over on ttora a while ago.

 

This...The Beast! A Early 70's Chevy. The owner was cool, got me out pretty quick too.

 

Dang so were was this at? Just random field lol.

 

An undisclosed unfinished suburb, that was hidden away from the road pretty well.

 

lol well you got a suprise

 

Haha, yea along with from my friends I took along and a whole lot of from the wife. Which ended in me when I had to pay the bill.

 

dang man $250 sucks but thats half a winch explain to your wife how this could be time for an "investment"

You didnt have any buddies you could call to get you out? That just sucks.

 

Yea the wife has already cleared me getting a winch. In fact she has already cleared me for my bumpers, AP LT kit and winch I didn't have any buddies to call all but one moved sadly. His Ford with stock tires was not gonna make it even close to my truck. The water had made the whole path mush and I probably should have turned around when I felt what I was driving on. Oh well we live and learn, and then we find TW

 

Thats deep man thats real deep

 

So this past Saturday after a sucessfull Friday of 'wheeling (see pic 1) I got the itch and decided to do a little "urban offroading". I pass by this spot all the time on the way to my GF's house that is under the 295 bridge in DT Baltimore, and decided to check it out. It is right near the train tracks and I knew there was probably some mud/trails back there even if it was probably illegal. Seeing no signs I hopped a curb and decided to drive around. I was on my way out when I decided to drive through a muddy patch that ended in a pretty steep dirt bump. Seeing some previous semi-shallow tracks I didnt think it was that soft - boy was I wrong! I instantly sunk down a good two feet and ended up like this.


After shoveling for an hour or so, I was done. The dirt in the front and back was solid and was too high to dig out on my own. The mud and water from the sides kept filling back in reversing any progress I had made. By now I had an open blister on my hand (open wound + bmore filth = nothing good) from shoveling w/o gloves, and it was obviously time to make some calls for help.

No one with a winch or a proper truck was around at the time, so I bit my lip and called AAA. After an hour of panicking about the cops showing up, AAA came to my rescue with a flatbed trailer. He hooked up his winch to the recovery points on my trailer hitch and hauled me out. Afterwards the guy told me it was the worst mudhole he'd seen in years, and I tipped him a good bit since hauling me out was probably illegal for him too.

All said and done, it cost me two hours of digging, 2 hours of washing (myself), 3 hours of washing (my truck + driveway), one CV boot and the money for the tip. Wow, not the Saturday I had planned.

/oh i forgot. All the while, this bum who lived under the bridge (VN vet, Wayne) was giving me shit for not being able to get my truck out. "Just pop that thing in 4wd and reverse out so I dont have to see your motherfucking face no more!". Had to give him a couple bucks too!

 

what did ya do get snagged on a rock or something?

 

me in my friends pond

it hadnt rained in weeks and i got drunk over there talkin mad shit about how badass my truck is lol

the worse thing about it is he pulled me out with his brand new 06 tundra he just got lol

 

simple solution. " bet your tundra couldn't make it" then tow him out with your truck and it badassness will be revived!
