    You might already know this, but if not, when you're pulling a vehicle that has one of those screw-in-tow hooks, make sure you pull as straight as possible because those screw-in hooks will bend and even snap off if you pull on them at an angle.

      @ky.gambler5281 I agree a rollback should of been able to rip that little suv outta there pretty easy but they said they broke their winch line and that's why they called Tim. But still could of pushed the deck all the way back, hooked a chain to the car back to the middle or front of the deck and used the hydrologics and pulled it up that way. If there's a will there's a way.
