Assuming you are alone and there is no place to winch to. Do you put it in 4L autopilot at the lowest speed and go sit on the tailgate to give it traction?

This is why I think going at a crawling pace is not always a good idea. With some momentum could have made it?

OMG HAHAHA (sorry dont mean to laugh but im having horrible flashbacks)... i did the EXACT same thing i ended up have to get pulled out by another truck. i was alone had to guide another vehicle in with a strap to pull me out. i had 2 people boucing on tail with no luck, tried same thing on front still no luck. it was totally sitting on the frame rails.

Hey @PyrPatriot is this your stuck truck? Oops! How did you get unstuck!
Unfortunately not. See my profile pic has a Destroyer Grey JT and the one pictured is red. It came across from a FB group and made me wonder, yah, how DO you get unstuck?

Gotcha. Had not noticed that. In answer to your question I can only suggest a winch at both ends. One thing my brothers has a rear winch on his truck that plugs into his trailer hitch. This way he can winch out from either end. He never gets stuck anywhere.

Ram, LJ,
you would have somebody stand on the rear bumper and jump up and down as you are trying to drive out. the other option have a buddy with another vehicle use a tow strap and pull it, takes like 30 seconds that way.

If ya look close at the pic. Driver had the right idea. Tuck the used tires or your spare behind the front tire(s) and put it in reverse. As the front tire crawls up onto the used tire it will lift the front end a bit, hopefully enough to get the truck off the frame rails and drive backwards down the incline. Once back down, pick a different line or “give it the beans!” Lol

A good jack would work there. Jack it up and get something under the tires (like those other tires)
