Default Pulled a Toyota Land Cruiser out with my 700

I was riding today and came across a 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser stuck in the mud and was able to pull him out. lmao I thought that was great. I slung mud all over his rig but I did get him out. He couldn't believe that I was able to do it but I did. I was in fairly deep mud with my 700 Griz and was able to lay into it with all wheels locked and with about 4 yanks and alot of hard pulling got him out.

pretty impressive being that its not a polaris, since polaris has the best pulling power of all brands.

I wish you'd done a video. I believe but would like to see the Toy driver's face. I think any of the big quads with true 4wd could probably do it. I keep getting impressed with what they can do. I would not buy anything without the full 4wd though. I've seen guys pulling telephone poles that were for bridge projects down the trail. I pulled an industrial sized wood chipper up a 30 degree slope that had wet grass that our 4x4 trucks couldn't. I even have a locker in the rear of my GMC and it wouldn't do it. I can't wait to see what my quad will do with a better set of tires when my 489s wear out.

The Toyota driver was an Asian man about 5'2" and when he jumped out of the SUV he was jumping up and down saying "I can't believe it, I can't believe it!". lmao It was funny actually.

I pulled a bronco II out of a mud hole after it stalled out with my 450 grizzly just locked in the front end and put it in low. but my quad was still on dry land. The driver of the bronco told me i couldn't do it. boy was he wrong, the look on his face was priceless also wish that i got it on video but i didn't.
