Tuesday Torque: Army Tractor School?

 How would you unstick a Rumely Oil Pull? The best strategy is to not get stuck in the first place. Count the lugs on a tractor tire and multiply by the height of each lug. Each rotation of the wheel cuts down that many inches. This is a lesson you should learn before you drive on soft or wet ground. Those angle lugs pump mud sideways, and you can go down on the frame in seconds. When your tractor starts to spin, stop the wheels and form an escape strategy. This has been a problem for some of my absentee landowners who borrowed a tractor to plant trees, without the knowledge of how fast a tractor tire can mine down in the mud.  Many Thanks, Merle!
