Hey, be nice, that guy in that TV spot is a friend of mine, only lives about 25 miles from me, he was more than willing to look like he didn't know what he was doing for what they paid him, I can tell you, it was way more than what I got paid last year!

Funny. Actually I figured it was some pencil-necked ad guy who came up with the concept. Still get a laugh, though.

When I was a kid my grandfather had a couple of Belgians so I'm familiar with the size horse you should use to pull a truck out of the mud.

Although waiting until the big thaw as planned is possibly the best course of action. You may have luck unsticking the truck if you disconnect the anchor (plow) be for you attempt to winch it out. Just a thought.

Ain't happening, this being a V plow set up, is just a bit more complicated than a normal plow, its not hurting anything where it is.

Abandoned vehicle? Some enterprising entepreneur/thief with a comealong may save you some trouble

Who said it was abandoned? It is sitting on the edge of my 1/2 mile long driveway, and the alarm is set! where I live, nobody even tries to drop by, uninvited, we are all old army vets, who have seen combat, and remember, I live in Montana!

LMFAO..

It will still be there when the snow melts, believe me!

:D

Where do you people come from?

Both of my posts were sarcasm MT.

I left my brand loyalty behind in the high school parking lot, and even then I wasn't very brand loyal.
Every truck gets stuck from time to time, don't matter who's logo is on the grill and steering wheel...
