truck is a 2016 f150 crew cab 4x4 5.0L open diff. love it but no way in hell was it more capable offroad than my WJ. As for weather its 9C out now and I cant see it getting cold enough to freeze up in the next few weeks.
thinking we will just make a wood track and winch out.
Did not say the pickup would be more capable off road; you are not crawling here, you are pulling someone, or something out of the mud in a flat/ish location, snow, etc. Here, weight helps considerably and you could even put extra weight in the bed to help. But you are now aluminum with that F150, right? The bottom line is if you can't get that F150 to the TT, you probably should not try and yank the TT out until the conditions are better. Once you get there; you will be able to gauge if it will or won't happen... Either way, keep the tractor close by and it can pull you both out.
I have experience in all these area's unfortunately... Raised on a ranch in Wyoming, and did have MANY learning experiences. Even the tractor... Buried my Dad's K5 in the mud on top of a hill. A buddy couldn't even get to me with his 4x4 pickup, let alone try to pull me out, so we had to get a tractor. That was the ticket and probably saved my life...
