I'm reading about MTRs vs TrXus tires and there is a post from 2001 where a guy is complaining about the cost of running a bias tire due to the cost of gas!  He is probably having a heart palpitations every time he fills up these days.

Plug does not need to be that tight. If you have to tighten it that tight to keep it from leaking you have a problem

GATR-CLAUS is what I'm looking forward to...this week.  I sure hope I can get the trailer out of the yard after all of this rain...damn I wish I had a 4x4 PU.

Use the Jeep....

That's my backup plan.  Now I have to do one of the following (jeep is so much higher than my truck's hitch):
- get a drop hitch and big ball (I like this one the best since I don't have to much with the hitch currently on the truck)
- get a 2" hitch relocation adapter (drops the 2" hole down about 10") and use my existing hitch
- just hook the trailer chains to the Jeep enough to pull it out of the mud pit and then hook it to the truck

I'm open to other suggestions

Drop hitch. But can you not just jack up our pick the trailer up to hook it to the jeep just to move it out of the mud?

Edit: just seen you had what I suggested already listed. So yeah just yank it out

Works perfect if you take it slow and easy

Big day today at work, 4 year software project to replace my company's core systems for sales and ordering, with integrations into ATT, VZ, Dish etc ordering automation.  We take the first call today!  Went to the office in a suit for the first time ever.
