Default My first recovery!

My roommate and I went shooting today and met these nice people in a white truck out there. They had left, and the driver walked back 10 minutes later saying his truck took a nose dive into this mud pit and he couldn't get into 4Lo. We packed up and drove him back to help but there were a few trucks and this 4wd pathfinder already there. The pathfinder made an attempt but couldn't free the truck, so we decided to hook the jeep to the pathfinder and try again. This truck had 35" tires and the front passenger side tire was completely buried.

Enjoy the video!

At first it looks like it's all pathfinder and then you see your jeep leading the way. Nice!

thanks guys! My buddy just sent me these pics he took. I was so excited to pull this truck that i was bummed when i saw the pathfinder already hooked up to it, but pulling in parallel this way was ten times better! I've had this jeep for three months now and i love it!
