do you have recovery points?
just get someone to come in and pull you out.

looks like you broke the first rule, never go out alone... this is why.

if you don't have proper recovery points, start diggin... good luck.

Grand Cherokee has a winch but I don't remember why he wouldn't use it.

Tie the grand with the winch to the Silverado, then use the winch and get it out. Or have em pull at the same time, can be hazardous, keep the trucks far enuf apart so they don't slide into eachother.

Duallys aren't good unless its real hard and dry, the mud fills up between the dual wheels, then it'll het stuck quick. Try the tractor. Dig the mud out from around your front steering and such, ive seen it get ripped off from the same situation your in.
