I've had a jeep since I was 18 years old (44 now) and since then I've always helped stranded/ stuck motorist out on the road. I'm so bad now that when it snows really bad or really bad conditions, I'm out at night helping others out. Am I Sick ? Or are there others like me. I use my winch more in the winter then I do in the summer off-roading. I love the feeling of my babe doing work and the satisfaction of seeing the people I help response and expressions . I think I just love saving the day or something with my jeep. But I know I just love rescuing people that need help. Please show any rescue photos you may have. Tell me your story.

That's awesome! Good for you. You should start this thread out with some photos and stories of your own.

Are you sick? No.

Are you just a cool person? Yes.

I do the same thing, mostly in the winter. I'll load up a shovel and other items and just drive around looking for stuck vehicles. I mostly like driving in the snow so that's probably why I do it.

I've never winched someone out, but I have helped a woman by backing her BMW X5 out of a hedge that she drove into after she lost control over her car on a steep decline covered with black ice.
