Not a link but I can tell a story ...
I had gotten home for the weekend and parked my truck bobtail in the yard. Well it rained that Sunday and I went to go get my trailer Monday morning. The rain had made the yard soft and slick of course and I couldn't get traction to get moving. The dirt was hard enough I wasn't sinking but soft enough I couldn't get moving either.
Back in that time...talking 17 years ago...I had a Ford aerostar van with all wheel drive and a Ford Taurus. Well the Mrs wasn't going to allow me to use the Taurus so I hooked up the van with her at the wheel and me in the truck.
Anyhow, the van gave me just enough extra pull to get the truck moving and get it out of the yard. We almost got the van stuck as well but with all wheel drive fortunately it was a able to keep traction.
That's the story behind the van...should have shot video to send to Ford.
