… pulling the truck out from where it was stuck in the tunnel? How about this for a real-life version? [http://video.wgntv.com/global/video/…d-like%20Blast](http://video.wgntv.com/global/video/popup/pop_player.asp?ClipID1=1235805&h1=Blizzard-like%20Blast) Cliff’s version: Chevy duallie crew-cab pulls out FedEx tractor-trailer stuck on side of road. The truck part starts at about 2:30. Kinda cool if you think about it. ---

Duramax… eh. lol I pulled a “snap on-ish” truck out of a ditch with my truck during the first big snow after the storm. Wasn’t too bad, but I almost put him into a telephone pole. Helped a buddy of mine get a utility truck out od a ditch too… I’m up to about 20… the hardest thing was a mini… I wasn’t sure if I was going to rip something off or not. the funniest one was a chick who ran her cavalier down the side of a telephone pole… when I was pulling her out her mirror caught the pole, so I stopped… and then punched it. They are spring loaded or something cause it popped right back into place. ---
