who's bright idea was it to drive into a lake?

I can't believe he yanked with tailgate down, that was just asking for a clevis to the back of the head, lol.

Was something jacked up on the drive line, or was the idiot actually holding the brake when you were yanking back that time?

I had some guys with 35" tires and lockers try yanking my CJ out of some ice once, but they did too much damage so I sent them off until my buddy's stock chevy could get there, we just used that & a jack.

the dude in the drivers seat wasnt willing to get his feet wet so he was standing on the seat and we think it was in park

[l337pwnage]

I can see people doing that. I've learned you need to give people very specific instructions during recovery operations. If for no other reason than to keep them safe.  I don't know that lake or the situation, but If I thought that water was deep, I don't think I'd even let him stay in the truck. I think we had 5 or more people die around where I live this winter from falling through the ice.

this was a just a big puddle,the lake is behind us,no danger except frost bite,once we got him out we went back to our bonfire to warm up

@radagenais As far as vehicle specs, I will put my money on a business that sells them for a living.

I've found off road forums posts of guys who's 4 runners tip the scales a over 2300 kg, weight depends on how you gear it out.

I consider all that light, tho, since my daily driver is over 3,000 kg with just me and 1/2 a tank of fuel in it. I hope I never get stuck badly with that thing, lol.

[radagenais]

@l337pwnage I own two Delicas. You checked some importers website. We regularly weigh out vans on the scales when heading out on road trips. With no load we can get them down to 2100kg. Ready for a weekend in the bush pushing 2400kg. Kitted out for overlanding with extra fuel tank we get them up to 2500kg. The GVW is 2505 although we upgrade our suspension so we can probably afford another 250kg.

L300s weigh a lot more than people think.

[l337pwnage]

@radagenais According to Pacific Coast Auto Imports pacificcoastjdm /review/mitsubishi/delicastarw­agon it weighs 1760 kg for the gas model and 1830 kg for the diesel. However, I'm sure they vary year to year and with options packages.

[radagenais]

@l337pwnage A Mitsubishi L300 weighs 2100kg dry. 1700kg front axle. It outweighs the truck pulling it.

I cannot believe he had the tailgate open also, asking for a clout to the back of the head.....

[paulnorris1]
