I've got several old mailboxes. I think I would have mounted one on it just for fun.:laughing:

Well, they got it out. Went back into town today after work and it was gone, as I would expect. I did get a look at the ditch and it did have water in it. As someone suggested, it looked like the ditch had a blockage in it causing it to hold water. He just turned that small area into a bog! I would have liked to watch the unsticking, there's usually something interesting that happens when you do that sort of stuff!!

Suppose somebody had to volunteer to steer it as they dragged it out?

"Big-time" What?, I dont even see any mud in the pictures. I think I could have got that out with a 1/2 ton 2-wheel drive pickup. Big-time is when you got to bring in dozers and excavators to get the machine out. I have not met a mud-hole yet that has been a match for my 4wd tractor with loader and R1 tires that I have been running the last 5 years. When the tires dont pull me thru, the loader does. If I ever do push it a little too far, I am sure I will be needing a dozer or excavator to get me out. In the old days, when all I had were 2wd's, I would get stuck, usually worse than in that picture, 3-4 times a season.

This towing job cost about $700.

The semi was overloaded and sunk to his axles.

Tow truck costs over $500,000 and the boom rotates like on an excavator as well as travels back and foreward for best angle.
