[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1533027, member: 14668"] I agree with you 99% of the time but on this one we differ. I keep a tow strap in the truck and there have been many occasions where I have gotten unstuck with help from a customer with a tractor or a 4x4. I only call in for a tow truck as a last resort. A few years back we had a horrible snow storm here with multiple drivers being stuck in drifts or ruts and 8-hour waits for tow trucks. That evening, I was chained up with two tons of pickup volume in the back and having no problems getting around. The center actually wound up pressing me into service as a "tow truck" and they sent me to "tow" 3 stuck drivers with my tow rope. It was kind of fun, actually, and since I was working as instructed (with verifiable DIAD messages) there is no way I could have gotten in trouble for inadvertent damage to the vehicle. [/QUOTE]
