    Maybe rent a truck to pull it out? Make sure you get the insurance, lol

    Keep messing with it. As a former tow truck driver, there was nothing we loved more than someone who kept trying to do it themselves. It was always good for turning a quick tug out of the mud into a major recovery operation.

    Don,even if he gets weight on the drives it will not help.
    Look at the picture,the grooves in the tires just fill up with thick mud.

    I say that the farm Tractor can do it, depending on the size. I know this opinion doesn't help you much, but I do think it's worth trying to get your neighbor's help.

    if you don't need it out right away just wait till it drys up or the ground freezes if you need it out right away call a tow truck. or try your neighbors tractor.

    Get a load of gravel dumped where you normally park...of course, before he dumps that load of gravel, he's going to have to pull you out.

    In future if you park there, get a plate compactor and compact ground there and then put down gravel on top of it.

    try Truck Claws. Watch their video online then make your own out of short 2x4's and straps.
    Put them on all 4 drive tires. I'd bet it would work.
