Unfortunitly I couldn,t help with my truck <><


I pulled about 8 people out of the ruts , aired them down and followed them out over the 15 years I had the permit. What kind of A hole wants to charge a lady with kids to help her off the sand?? Times sure have changed.

That really is the "wtf." Would of taking 5 minutes of time to pull her back out and air her down. She would have driven right out.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

Other than what Spence said ... which very well could be true ... was the woman in her right mind ... meaning could she have been drinking, had low blood sugar or something that impaired her mental state?

Cause that is a big WTF on so many fronts.

However, when I lived on Long Island and had my 4-wheel drive Jeep Wrangler, one day I was a bit lazy and didn't air down quite enough, was driving onto Smith's Point during a lunch break ... fell into a whole or something on the way into the beach (in the path through the dunes) and my vehicle wound up resting on the sand, but the wheels couldn't grab the sand ... a number of guys were right there to help out before I even stepped out my car ... gave me a few pointers ... helped me rock it back and forth and I was back on my way to work with my shoes filled with sand and slacks covered in sand as I had to get down and dig it out.

I could have gotten my self out on my own, but those guys were really nice, no questions asked, jumped into action immediately and provided a few tips on making the transition in and out of the beach.

I was lucky.
