Your right, it was a mix of red clay and some sand, oh and just a tad bit of water. It was so rutted up that getting any speed was impossible unless you wanted to beat the crap out of yourself.

I was pulling my friend and his jeep out of a river awhile back and we couldn't get it to fire up again. So we used my truck to pull it and get some speed so he could dump the clutch and start it. I was in my truck while my friend was hooking everything up and when I got out after i pulled him for about 1/4 mile i noticed the dumbass wrap the rope around the front bumper and it ended up getting a small nick in it. Then when I pulled the Tahoe out the first time about an inch of it ripped and then on the next couple pulls the whole thing basically ripped.

He doesn't have much money at all so I wouldn't do that to him. Now its time to upgrade.

The guy that screwed the rope up is another guy, not the one in the Tahoe.

I will NEVER use a chain, I like having all my windows and body panels the way they are meant to be.
