Nun yer. | What I found when I went to get feed on a farm a few miles from home.
1. This road is a dead end road that you have to go through town to get to it. You can't even accidentally drive out to this farm. There are two dead-end signs by town (1/2 mile back up the road). This is what I saw as I drove up there.
2. The guy is stuck, decided to drop the trailer to get truck out, then get hooked back up. The only problem with that was he dropped a loaded trailer (with cooking oil) onto the ground with nothing under the landing gear.
3. So as he is trying to get back under the trailer it just keeps sinking until it's resting on the tires. To make matters worse for him, the back axle is just a tag axle.
4. Call a friend who has a towing service and him and his son come out. The try to lift the trailer with just one truck and realize the trailer will sustain major damage doing it that way so they call for the other wrecker.
5. They finally are able to lift the trailer up and get him out from underneath of it. He wouldn't listen to the wrecker guys and gets stuck trying to back under the trailer. We hook a tractor to it and pull it out. Gets stuck again trying to back under the trailer so we had to hook the tractor to it again from behind and pull the truck back under the fifth wheel.
6. Finally get it all hooked up and they pull him out backward. Yes!!
Only took approximately 4 hours to get him off the farm finally.
