In the winter, during snowstorms me and a couple buddies grab our tow straps and cb radios, and hit the road. We usually have two trucks. We drive around looking for people who are stuck. You can make some damn good beer money this way, as long as you dont ask for any.

We have gotten pretty good at pulling cars and trucks out. We have found that pulling with the rear of the vehical is a waste of time. "Unless you get one of those that are vaccume locked into mud, and you need 20ft runs." But we are usually dealing with snow.

They put to hooks and loops on trucks for pulling things out not for being pulled. we tend to pull in reverse in 4 low, at a crawl. It works the best. The engine is a very good weight. This way also gives you a very good view of what is happening. Try to position your self in the best place possible.

We usually have 2 people in a truck. Having someone with you that know what they are doing is helpfull. They can run the gas in the other vehical as needed.

Another easy way is to call a wreaker they are insured to pull people out. Its really handy if you have AAA or Roadside assistance.

I like to pull people out. Its fun. Did I mention it scores big points with girls, that dread having to call daddy. Ahh the teen years. lol
