That's what a local Amish man used when I first got stuck trying to cross the embankment on his road. Worked like a charm.

 

Yep. It's a poor man's winch. I helped my buddy unstick himself in his 1st gen blazer with one when he dug frame into a mud pit.

 

Not on the trails but I use them at work all the time

I may have to 'misplace' one

 

I used one once when i got stuck in the snow (funny story) it worked great

 

what do you mean you may have to 'misplace' one?

i think he means steal one.

 

He means a 'sorry boss I cant find it' when its really in the back of his truck.

 

I used one and had no luck two guys reefin on it and it was kinda scary so we quit wouldnt move the truck a inch depends how stuck you are i guess

 

They work great, so long as they're in good shape...

They rust easy. lol

Or at least the ones my dad had did... Then again, they're over 20 years old...
