Okay, so I was just screwing around today. Had been dying to get a car of some sort into the bed of one of my trucks. Why? Just because I can for the heck of it. ha ha So I finally got the hill side dug out to where I could back up to it and only have to use small ramps to drive right in.
I know the concept is nothing new at all. I just had to try it myself. But have you ever seen a 2000 Chevy Suburban in the back of one?
No? Probably because it is too blinking long!!!
I know you guys have seen and hauled jeeps in the back of these things, but here's my moms jeep in the bed. It actually fit!
Oh, and in another venture.......... After making my video the other day of my truck all chained up driving in the snow, I decided to take it out and see just what it could do in the snow without the chains out of curiosity. It did quite well, but when I got to a really steep part of the road where the snow was nearing two feet deep, I lost traction and came to a stop. And when I backed up to get another go at it, the front end slid to the right, and I ended up kind of sideways stuck in the road unable to move at all. So yipee!
I finally for the first time get to USE the winch rather than just playing with it. So I just hooked it to a tree on the left side of the road, pulled myself straight, and backed down the road and turned around and went home since I didn't feel like putting the chains on to go any further.
So here is a pic of it where it got stuck. Doesn't look like much, but it was my fun for the day.
