I got stuck in my office Friday

It took a John Deere 8200 to pull me out and it was straining. Its pretty unusual for me to get stuck but I slid into the mud hole after hitting a slick spot. Oh well its just part of farming I guess. Picture attached.

Funny, it doesn't look like it's that stuck...until you look at the load of sod you got on top of your office !

It was fully loaded from front to back, 22 pallets. I hit the whole in 5 gear wide open, usually the momentum will push you thru but I hit a slick spot that pulled me over just enough and before I could scratch my head I was stopped. LOL

I hate it when that happens, I guess it's to bad you didn't have a bed in your office. You could have pulled an all nighter. lol

I drive also and it is amazing how sometimes it takes so little to stop a semi. I was stuck a few winters ago on slush. I could not get the tires through to the concrete.

I got stuck on a small hill after a hail storm pulling my bass boat w/a 4 wheel drive. Had to wait for the melt in July.

I have been stuck on level ground before and you would think the weight would count for some traction, but it just makes it worse. Glad to see it worked out how long before you where back 10-8?
