Default What have you saved in your XJ?

Everyone likes to talk down on XJ's but we know that our vehicles are the ultimate recovery tools!

Lets see some pics of you rescuing your buddies big rigs after they talk ****!



After I pulled him out he stopped next to the next mud pit and left his windows rolled down... I filled his interior with mud; on accident.

Just on Thursday on Oregon inlet beach I pulled a new f150 out that had dug himself up to his frame rails. The guy not only had no idea of how to use 4lo, but didn't air down and had 40psi in his tires.

Next best would have to be trail riding with my buddy who drove a k5 army blazer with the diesel. He said he knew the trail so I let him go first, he ended up driving into a 6 foot ditch that went across the trail! ( he didn't see it because the weeds were about 3 foot tall). He was probably at a good negative 45 degree angle and I pulled him out of the ditch.

This is the only thing that I have a picture of that I pulled out. But have pulled out two land rovers, a ups truck, a post office truck, toyota forklift truck and others.... Once they all got pulled out they would look at me and say "huh... guess I was wrong." But i have been pulled out by a list just as long :-)

A semi driver got a single axle rig stuck in a field behind my job.

If I hadn't been on my motorcycle that day I would have gotten to at least give it a try.

*You can kinda see my Jeep in the background lol).

And a friends 2006 Ford F150:



And my gf's 2006 Toyota Yaris from a ditch in the winter.. no pics of it, but it's just a Yaris lol.
Also some good looking girls broken down Plymouth Acclaim, although I just pulled it from the busy road to a parking lot haha.
