Well, I accidently found the limit of my 6530.
Was taking dirt/ash out of my burn pit as I wanted to improve on it, and got stuck in the lovely Southern red clay which is like quicksand after a hard rain the other night. Upper dirt was fine, but the clay just absorbed all the water. Got all 4 wheels stuck, with the fronts sunk well over the hubs deep. Logs, digging, wood, nothing would let it get traction to climb out of the pit. It took all 800lb.ft of my Ford 6.7 diesel truck in 4 wheel low and a heavy tow strap to pull it out. Won't be doing that again anytime soon.:laughing:
