hey we were at my dads, bosses area atving that day and later that night someone that we didn't now but he was a family member of the boss. [im going to call him boss] anyways he decided to take a short cut though some weeds and ended up in a 8 foot ditch and at that time i was at camp,
and after a awhile we were wondering where they were and i headed out and fond them in a 8 foot ditch they were ok but the atv wasn't so i went back and told them what happend and we got out
our tow rop but it busted so some one els had a
gigger and better tow rop and this guy that owned
this atv got on it and he wad neer 400 pounds
and we hav a 450s honda foreman and this creek dad vertical slants to them so it mad it hard to
pull it but it didn't even bog down our honda and wen we got it out it was gunk from them hitting the wall on the side of the ditch and it had to be towed back with it's braks locked and that was
the hardest part of it all and i loved it.

One day I was riding my 94 Honda 300 4X4 through some fields with some friends and we came up on some kid that had his truck stuck in the mud. He was up to his floor boards with it, he had a 1/2 ton truck with fourwheel drive. I pulled up to him and asked him if he had a chain and he said yes, so I got it from him and hooked it up to my ATV. I slowly tightened the chain and then I just gunned it and he slowly came out of the mud. But when he got out I was also burried in mud. But we just picked that out with our hands. That is my story do you have any better ones

Yeah I have a better one. The guys at the Polaris forum tell me that those bullet proof Polaris atv's never get stuck or break down.

I am amazed the belt lasted long enough to get it stuck. As most know, the belt can't take a beating and keep on gettin it.
Go with something that works, like GEARS.

99 Traxter

This is quite the story, I just wish it made enough sense to make it readable! Wow, you need grammar and punctuation help!!!

Rewrite it a little better, I'd love to read it.

Glenn.

The Bombardier Traxter pushes what? 35hp say. The belt driven Bombardier Mach Z snowmachine has to handle 110 hp at a much higher rpm. Belts on ATVs where not made to have life so easy.

I've also pulled some trucks out before. 2 toyota 4x4's were stuck up to the floorboards, I pulled them out in reverse( I used the winch to pull them out) It's on the front of my 300. Also my signature doesnt say it, but I now have snorkels. I think i'll go change it right now.
