    Stuck taco...
    I just found this article in Petersen's 4wheel & Off Road magazine.I figured i might as well scan&post it here too...
    Check it out: (see attachment pic)

    The article might be a little difficult to read in the picture so here's what the article says:
    While venturing to a hunting spot in upsatate Pennsylvania, I tried going around a fallen tree only to slide off the muddy road and into this pit. After five hours with a come-a-long and making it roughly 20 feet, I decided to call it a day. The next morning we used my dad's 1/2 ton Silverado to pull me out the rest of the way, and for some reason I'm still hearing about it!
