I usually rescue 1-2 a day in the summer. Beach driving is not like mud bogging. Tire spin gets you no where fast.....

older ford f150 - huge bulky truck got stuck in the mud.
newer ford ranger -twice the size of my truck- out of the mud around three times.
Helped pull an 80's blazer out of a ditch.

I dragged a dead Hummer H1 from the first obstacle of Holy Cross back to the trailhead. The moron managed to thrash both diffs and no less than three CV joints.

A few(but it's usually me that needs pulled out, and generally not so much the trucks fault either when that's the case).

4x4 GMC Jimmy stuck in about 3.5" of snow.

Some dumbass kid and his little Mazda whatever it was out of the ditch he slid into.

And, my personal favorite, a 4x4 Nissan pickup high-centered on a rock about the size of a bowling ball.

I helped out my buddy's 87' T4R and my other buddy's 93' Range Rover last week at Oceano Dunes.

I helped my buddy's 05' Tacoma out the mud hole at Hollister Hills.

I tried to help a 80's k5 Blazer stuck down to the axle in a mud hole along side a forrest service road in Arnold a couple years ago but it was too muddy. After trying and just spinning my tires a few times, I just gave them a ride home.

I know what it's like to be stuck so I try to return the favor as much as possible!!!

1997 ford ranger 2wd on a regular basis its my dads but this year we have had no rain so he hasent goten stuck lately

also i quit trying to pull another yota out after i smelled clutch but around here if you hear a toyota is stuck you better have a winch because when they get stuck there stuck and you can almost never get to where thier at its so bad

that why i dont get a winch you become a towing service

last one was an isuzu rodeo stuck in the bottom of a ravine...we were on a service road on our way to the trail head when my buddy had to stop to take a leak. he was peeing over the edge when he realized there were guys down in the bottom. we spent 3 hours of our good wheeling time pulling those ya-hoo's out...oh, well. we have a good story. looking back on it though, that was a start to a bad day...we got shot at (guys on another mountain top doing target practice or something sending bullets right over our freakin heads!!!) and a guy in our group got ran over...rough day. maybe we shoulda let the dudes in the rodeo call a wrecker and the rest of our day may have been better...
