Default A couple short mud encounters

Me and my brother decided to go for a look for some mud pits to play in, we haven't found any great spots yet but today was pretty good. In this pit there was probably 4-5 stretches of water/mud, this is the only hole we taped but there will be more to come. We both managed to get stuck trying it in 2wd and going slow, the Blazer pulled the 4runner out with ease. I'm not an experienced offroader so maybe there's different things I could have done to get out, post them if you wish. It's youtube links, no cursing or anything.

My Blazer - first pass in 4wd, then tried it in 2wd lol

My brothers 96 4Runner Limited - 4wd, didn't get a video of him getting stuck

Why did you go so slow in 2wd? You would have been just fine had you had some momentum. I personally wouldn't have put the 4runner on there its just bad P.R.

I wasn't too worried about being stuck because I just pulled him out of it so I knew he could pull the blazer. I also wanted to see if I did get stuck in 2wd if switching to 4wd would get me out, lack of experience probably but it was still pretty fun. I don't know whats wrong with putting the 4runner there it's a nice truck.
