well we got a group together and went off roading. there were 5 of us and we had my 81 luv 4x4, my friends 80 luv 4x4 and his beater a 85 isuzu p'up 2wd with no windshield. we were doin good then the p'up got stuck. so we threw them a strap and hooked it up to my luv and when i started pulling it pulled the p'up over onto the passenger side. so we all run over there and the 2 guys in the p'up are okay so then we all laugh about it and push it back over. then we hook back onto it since its still stuck and i start pulling it and it goes in a mud hole. it sunk to the headlights in mud. so i lightly hit it. when i started spinning i'd let the strap pull me back a little then hit it again. i was watchin it while pulling and it was plowing mud away as i was pulling. took about 25 hits before i got it out but everybody was amazed that i was able to pull it out. it sucked cause we left the camera back at camp. once we went and got the camera we thought about rolling it over again and taking a picture but we decided not to.

I haven't pulled anything out with my Luv yet, but had an 86 P'UP and an 88 Trooper. In the P'UP I tried to pull this massive vine out of a tree, so I tied a strp to the rear bumper and gave it a good yank. Before I knew it the back tires were six foot off the ground and the vine never moved! Had to pull one section of the vine at a time. The Trooper (4cyl) pulled a full size school bus from a ditch after it slid off the edge of the road in the snow. I was thoroughly impressed! It's amazing what the proper gearing will do.
