    Hope it works out for you. I think at this point a wrecker might be the best choice. What do you think would happen if a daycab went out there and got stuck trying to help?

    Bigger mess=bigger tow bill

    That would most likely disturb the bees.

    Well if the one poster is correct. 3900 to haul bees from one to coast to another sounds way cheap. Then gets stuck
    Yep eat the costs and call a wrecker
    Lesson learned, I've been in spots that I have had to get wreckers to get around turns because some goofed on rte survey

    Haven't read anything the OP saying someone came to his rescue.Wonder if he finally decided to call a wrecker.They're exp in this sort or thing.Of course it'll be much more then $300.00 probably around 700.00 or higher since it's in Calif.

    A Day Cab went and helped me to get it out. Ended up costing me 500 bucks, but lowest estimate from a wrecker was 2200 bucks because of the location where it was. Just glad to be done and a life lesson I will remember got the rest of my life.

    Just for future reference, if it's a spread axle, chain up the rear to make it pivot on the front axle. You should be able to make some pretty tight corners then.
