Today as we were leaving a CG near Atlantic City, NJ., there was a 43ft Newmar stuck in the sand/mud. Just sat there spinning one rear wheel.
My BIL and I went to see if we could help. After trying to raise it on its jacks and jambing firewood under the wheels, it still would not move.
I unhooked our 5er and put a chain from his rear hitch to mine (he didn't think I could do it) 4 wheel lo, my F450 pulled that 40K lb MH out throwing rooster tails from all 4 corners!
So, proud of my truck we headed back home feeling good that we were able to help.
Its nice that most of us are always there to help one another. Makes me proud to be an RV'er!!

Good job. I hope I can do that for someone, someday. The 450 must be a pretty tough truck to handle that.

Great job. I am sure he was most relieved to have the help and rescue. May it come back to you if you ever need help.
