This has been a long week with all this snow. I haven't posted in a loooong time, so I will need some time to catch up on things around here. Just thought I'd share how many things got stuck this week.
1.1999 Jeep Wrangler 4x4, stuck in unplowed driveway, about 20" at the time, needed the M4900 to pull it out.
2.2007 Lexus GX470 AWD (mid-size SUV) stuck three times within 20ft in the freshly plowed driveway, just soft enough to bottom it out. First & Second time needed the Kubota again, Third time Me, my uncle, and my grandfather managed to rock it out.
3.Kubota M4900 4x4 with rear blade, loader, and loaded R4s stuck in snow. Pulled out by '05 Tundra 4x4.
4. 2003 Chevy 2500 6.0 ext cab, long bed, 4x4 with 700lbs of sand plus 1k of misc stuff. This was REALLY stuck. Needed the Case skid steer 70XT(?), because the Kubota was at the office.
5. Case 70XT. Got stuck while pulling out the Chevy. Luckily managed to wiggle it's way out with the bucket and me and my father pushing.
6. 2004 F550 6.0 Dump body, 4x4. This was hauling the skid steer to get the Chevy out. It was just a little caught in a bank from the snow plow that had come through while we were getting the truck and skid steer unstuck. Pulled out by Chevy mentioned above.
7. '52 Allis Chalmers B, taken out to go rescue the Chevy, but got stuck 30ft from the bay door in the snow. Pulled out by Kubota.
8. '51 John Deere MT, same idea. Pulled out by Kubota.
This all happened on our 35 acre place. Then we had a few misc rescues on the road with the Kubota and the Chevy. We are all beat, now with 4-8" more coming, we just wish it would end. We are going on vacation this weekend, but to the MOUNTAINS NORTH WEST OF US. Now we will have even more snow. We will take the Jeep, Chevy, and Toyota all mentioned in the post and hope we won't get stuck.
Take Care,
Kyle
