The other day, following a sizable snowfall, a buddy calls me and asks if I could assist his wife who had gotten her Honda Civic stuck in a snowbank. Since my truck was still on the disabled list, I wasn't able to do anything for them; however, I got to thinking that I really wouldn't have known proper and/or safe ways of recovering another vehicle. I'm fairly confident that I'll be getting this request again and thought I'd seek the wisdom of the mudders on how to properly and safely recover a variety of vehicle types from a variety of problems (snow/ice being the foremost concern for me) using a variety of methods (straps, winches, chains?) with an 80. Also, any techniques related to unlocked vehicles are especially welcome since I didn't get mine locked and can't afford aftermarket yet.
And Merry Christmas to all .
