Tundra pulls out GMC dually

Sorry Mike if you see this- I couldn't help myself. My neighbor has a big-ass Chevy dually and was plowing out our cul-de-sac (thanks Mike) and got the blade stuck into a big pile and was facing downhill, and got stuck. No worry Mike....Tundra to the rescue. Too bad the wife didn't flip the camera over to movie mode.....but it would've been a short clip, it was barely stuck. I think a Yaris could've pulled it out. BTW- We got hit with about 20 inches of snow over Fri and Sat....The Tundra didn't miss a beat and drove right thru the snow. The traction and stability systems are awesome, especially when going about 50mph on the freeway in those huge ruts of snow and all of a sudden the ruts will end, or worse yet, end on just one side and leave one tire in the rut! I saw a jeep wipe out Sat morning and crash into the concrete divider when the rut disapeared on the right side. Oh- here's a couple of picks of the stuck Chevy:

Yep, I have to pull people out all the time with my Jeep. I use my jeep because it makes these idiots driving jacked up trucks look really bad when a little Jeep Grand Cherokee Pulls them out.

ahhh, the good ole G80. Had one of them. Can't stress the importance of a locker. My little vanagon has a locker, and I have pulled full sized trucks out of sand. Now that is something to see!
