Ah yes Sir Tig but where is the fun in going into a muddy bog and getting stuck up to your wheel arches in mud and then having to get someone with a winch to haul you out and pay £40ish for the privilege.....I will ask again where is the fun???? :y

I used to live and work in East and Southern Africa, so have done plenty of digging cars and trucks out of mud and sand. :) Usually in the pissing rain when you are trying get somewhere. ::) ;D
I like asphalt! :y

Indeed. Far more comfortable thing to get stuck in mud with.
Obviously, if you don't want to get stuck, a proper 4x4 is needed.

I suppose if you're going to bury a Frontera, a sandy quagmire is as good a place as any :-\

The moral of the story is that when driving around a lake, don't be tempted to take a short cut across a dried up bit, even if there are wheelmarks. ::) 5 hours of digging before we gave up and got towed out by a 'passing' Grader! ;D

Blimey! :o Did he get out? Looks like he's about to topple over back down the slope... :-\ ;D
-
that was me driving and yes it does look a bit like that, but if we had not have had enough momentum yes I guess we would have toppled backwards...but In actual fact we were going forwards and yes we got out of the hole...as I said before.....when in doubt.....flat out :y
