Being it's rwd i don't have a tow package (LT came with fog lights) I did push my dads silverado that died in the turning lane turning into my neighborhood with the blazer at like 8 o'clock. People are retarded who drive around here especially when someone has their hood up and flashers on. lol, i still have scuffs from the little impacts of the bumpers. idk if it counts but it should =P

haha nice, thats what i got the bush gaurd on the front for. got it mounted solid to the frame. Its awsome for pushing/hitting stuff. The garbage bins at work over time slowly creep over and take up my parking spot so i use it to go and push them back

A month ago, a Toyota Corolla was trying to pull a Golf out of a muddy parking after a rainy night, and they both got stuck. I was passing by, saw them, got excited and pulled them both at the same time
And guess what! On my way back, I pulled a small fallen tree out of the road

aha nice! i was out on some old logging road a few months ago and there was a massive tree that had fallen down over the road, so i hooked up the rope around it and tried to pull, got it a little ways but then no further, ended up having to give a good couple of yanks and got it out of the way JUST enough that i could drive over part of it to get by.

Heres a pic of the bus, was so dissapointed he was gone by the time i managed to swing back around

Unfortunately, I only have one story this winter (not much snow/ice so far).

I had to pull out my fiance's father a couple weeks ago. He got his Dodge Ram stuck near our house and had to ask for my help. Apparently his transmission was acting up (couldn't get into 4wd), and he doesn't have a locker, so the best he could do was a 1-wheel peel. After I pulled him to a dry spot on the road, he promptly drove about 30 feet and got stuck again. So I pulled him out twice in a matter of minutes.

i've pulled a few vehicles this season (my Dad's Plymouth when he moved, my youngest brother's Jimmy when it left him stranded) but i never thought to take a pic of the only serious pull i've done so far this Winter, since i was alone.

besides, we really haven' had too much of the white stuff around here so far.

Or if rpo codes are confusing you can just count the number of wires the blazer has stashed in its butt for the wiring harness!

driveway donts: when being puled out of a ditch, do not drive immediately back into the ditch
