well heres the results of my first trip to this particular mudhole, turns out there was a swamp at the outside edge of that turn. Damage: one busted windshield, and a few chain link shaped dents.
 
I wish i could find some holes like that in my area. Theres only a few, there decent but it has to rain for like 60 years to get muddy lol.

best part is its public owned land, just a hidden area with probably 20+ miles of trails and a beautiful view of the sunrise from on top of the dirtbike ramp. come on down and we'll go wheelin'Q

i can take a pic. we broke a 12k rated strap prior, if you look at the pics, thats whats hooked up, we broke it and launched it so far over the truck we couldnt find it. next time im gonna order me a 20k test choker for moving rebar, tough muthafugger, i aint gonna break that with a pickup truck
 
Ah i had my windshield replaced, like last summer, and it only cost me $100 bones, to cover the glass fee lol i know the owner of the business real well. I bet you can get one on the streets for like $200ish though.

i've always use a chain to get my truck out of a hole even though it was only once but we were using a samurai so we had to floor it and run to the end of 30 feet of chain and it never broke same with an f 250 and chain held together you guys must be using cheap shitty chain end thread jack sorry

by the way awesome pics and stuck bad too lol

you got lucky if you were snatching someone out with a chain and it didnt break. Astro27 were those holes flooded from the hurricane? I know here in St. Augustine we got a LOT of mud from it.

A strap is MUCH safer, and they don't cost that much.

no, not flooded from the hurricane, just typical florida rainy season. it still looks like that. we went out the other day and i had water running in the bottom of the doors before i pussed out and backed up when it started splashin up over the hood. i found 200 ish for glass, but i aint as worried about it as a right front brake that occasionally drags now :( i gotta get it all fixed and readdy to do the body lift.
