Why would you in hook trailer if stuck. You are able to get the tractor out how are you going to get the trailer out. Wishing wii not work
If you have some way to air up the tire, like a glad hand inflation hose. Drop the air pressure out of the drive tires untill the sidewall starts to mushroom out and touch the ground. It will take a lot! Dang near flat... You only want to go in a straight line so you don't peel the tire off the rim in a turn. Just enough to back out, or go straight forward. Then you can air up the tires and go. It will take a while, but still faster and cheaper than calling a tow. If you can reinflate the tires afterwards...
"The downer you go, the worser it gets." That's advice from an experienced oil field driver I keep in mind. In sand, mud, gravel, or deep snow you NEVER EVER want to spin your drives. That will only cause them to go in one direction... ...DOWN. If you find yourself in a situation where your drive tires have dug a hole in the soft terrain, then your best option is to "rock" yourself out of it. Start in Lo and throttle forward GENTLY until you feel it ALMOST want to spin your drives, then push in the clutch and roll back and JUST as it almost stops against the uphill of the trough at the back engage the clutch and give it throttle to try to catch momentum to top out on the front side. If you don't quite make it after a try or two, try getting into reverse as you almost top out on the front of the hole, to get into the top of the back of the holes your drive tires have dug. Then get into Lo or 1st and juice the throttle and try to power GENTLY over the front of the pit. You should always have the power divider (aka Interaxle Differential Lock) engaged in ANY slippery, soft conditions. Otherwise you will spin out only one of your four sets of drives. I have done a fair amount of mud, sand, bottomless gravel, and deep snow with only a power divider. I haven't yet tried letting air out of my drives, but might consider that in the future if I really get stuck. The rocking method may be problematic with an automatic. I've never driven one. I have driven over a thousand different trucks, mostly drive away for oil field companies, and NONE of them were automatics. My own truck is an old Swift O/O truck, with no full lockers, only a power divider. So far I have never had to call for a bulldozer to come rescue me.
Spotlight29 has truck parking. And there’s always an open spot there. Plus you can lose your towtruck money in the slot machines
Thought the word "Sand Trap " would of been enough to warn you if you've ever watched car racing they specifically use sand traps to stop high paced vehicles colliding with barriers.
So, you tried parking in desert sand when you could have parked on an onramp? Parking on an onramp is not the greatest thing, but it has to be done from time to time (I have done it once int he last month).
