Well, yea i saw this big PUDDLE, and thought hell i might be able to skip over this, but then i thought mabey not, so i went into it slow to see how deep it was, and the front end sunk, so in a split second i stomped the gas, thinking JUST GO, well nothing went newhere but the front of my truck, the front end sunk in the clay so far that the bumper was touching the water... So i called my buddy who has a full blown Baja Toyota 2WD, thinking mabey he could pull me out... Nope his truck was to light, so we went back to another buddies and got a new F150, and eventually got it out... It was some deep muck, i dont even think i truck with 44" Super Swampers could have made it through that...

Son that mud is not deep. A set of 44 swampers and 300+ horsepower would have skipped right through that hole.
 






I've crossed holes like that to get to the good stuff. your not stuck until you have two 9500 pound winches using snatch block are hooked to you and there trucks are strapped to trees to hole them still.
 






that is some deep muck, but man you aint seen nothin yet, 2 weeks ago i was sunk past my damn headlights half way up my door water spewing in, i had to litterally dip my entire half of my body into the **** just to hook up a freakin tow strap... and i have a 5.5" lift and 33", sucks the only guy that could possibly even get over to me to even attempt to help was a lifted toy, it was funny i would have my foot matted with like 50ft rooster tails off all fours he would floor it with some slack in the line and i would see his truck just snap at the end of the line and my EX would move like an inch... it took about 5 or 6 good pulls and a broken tow strap before i was out
