What is stuck to you?

Is it when have to back out of a hole?

Is it when you can't back out but all you have to do is get off a push alittle?

Or is it when the above didn't work and you had to be pulled out by something else?

A few years back, before I had my AC500, and I was just learning on my first quad, a Yamaha Timberwolf, I was running through what looked to be a dried out pond on a friends farm. All was well until I got in the very middle and the dry "crust" broke and I sank like a stone in some of the foulest stankiest muck I had ever seen! I was so far away from hard ground that my buddy's 25 foot winch line would not reach and I ended up losing BOTH of my boots trying to walk when that crap sucked them right off! My buddy ended up getting stuck too trying to pull my sorry butt out on his King Quad (not an easy thing to get stuck!) and we had to walk several miles to get his 4wd Zetor tractor to pull us both out!

I guess my answer is.....when you cannot get out without help....you're stuck!

ITS WHEN YOU CANT GO FORWARD OR BACKWARDS AND YOU HAVE TO KEEP YOUR MOTOR RUNNING CAUSE IF IT DIES, WATER & MUD WILL RUSH UP YOUR TAILPIPE.

What if you can't go farward or backward, but the water is only at your floorboards?

Floorboards??Thats like grounded out, a little push and your out. I was riding my wonderful AC 500 for the first time(a long time ago) and i went threw a creek that me being very smart figured id go across. Sunk like a rock in a pool. To make matters worse the running water packed the mud in and 600lbs stuck fender deep in some mud that aint moving...thats not a pretty site. It took a winch and 2 atvs tied to the end of him to get me to SLOWY crawl out. But it was a lesson for me that dont ride by yourself cuz it took me 2 hours to find those people.
