2. Let traffic wait. It is generally amazing how well strangers understand that what you are trying to do is not quick or easy.

3. If you have 4 wheel drive, use low range even if you don't need it. It makes throttle control much easier.

#3 is tough when you have locking diffs; turning radius expands greatly. At least in my situation. YMMV...

Also hard on the drivetrain if it's a paved roadway as the front and rear axles won't turn at the same speed with the wheels turned.

Never cared for the radio/cell phone option. To much opportunity for differing messages, didn't hear or sarcasm to creep in.
