Mel,

You guys got a lot more snow than we did here in Toledo. That's was a cool video. Was the background music "Tom Sayer"? I have to admit, I was hoping to see the Moose Truck do some doughnuts. LOL

Mel,
You got to get a winch! I could have pulled the tractor and never moved my truck, although it wouldn't have been much of a video. Just think, you sit in the warm garage, youngen stretches cable to stuck tractor. Hit the switch, wind it all up and never leave the comfort of the heated garage!!! :)

Like I said, would not have been as entertaining, but the Moose truck would not have even gotten wet!!!

See some work on the garage, others shop on fleabay, and some make videos. Anything goes when you'r stuck at home with so much snow around :D . Mel I didn't think you would take the Moose truck on the snow, but it really has no trouble going up that hill full of snow, mine would need to be really loaded to make it up hill.

Cool video, my respects to Graham. :thumbsup:

You guys that are waiting for something to happen when the countdown ends, aren't reading what's on the screen. There is a code that appears, which they call a "download ticket". You have to type that in. THEN it will download. Roger on the winch idea. The one I always wanted was from Warn, and was disguised in the back bumper. You flipped the license plate down to expose the hook and the cable came out through a set of guide rollers. Pretty cool, but since the truck is usually backed into the garage, I would have had to turn around outside to use it. Yes Scott, I know. It got wet, but the snow was clean, and it seemed like a good excuse to get it out, since it hadn't turned a wheel since new years day. Yes, that is Tom Sawyer, and I appreciate you recognizing it, since it is me playing it. :D This wasn't the only video on Moose TV today. Stand by for another one, which Ron should be able to download by the end of next week with his dial up connection. :rotflmao Many applogies to you guys. I used to have that problem too. Believe me, if I was still on dial up, there would be no Moose TV. :D Thanks to WWWabit for mirroring them stateside. ;Sweet

Pretty ironic, I did a tractor rescue with my truck today...twice. ( I'm a slow learner). I didn't even take pictures. Too embarrassing to show & the County Plow truck was nice enough not to run the tractor over & give me some time to pull it out of the road on the second rescue. I don't think he would have liked me snapping a pic every few seconds LOL

Mel, I saw the video clip a wwwabbit. It was cute. In Baja I was invited to go wheelin' with some of the local Subaru wheelersLOL . They thought I was gonna take my Jeep but when I showed up with my 4x4 CC dually they laughed at me from the top of the hill. Well, that was all it took. I locked the hubs, fired her up again, pulled the 4HI lever and walked up that hill with no problem. They called me LocoGringo from then on. You'll just hafta trust me on that cuz there's no video of it. I'll bring video of Jeepin' in REAL snow in Oregon and at Moab, Utah to the IDI Rally this summer. If I had a way to convert video tape to digital I'd post it for ya'll. Loco/Baja/OkieGringocookoo
