D3's aren't invincible (unfortunately)
Just because everyone loves to see someone else stuck

Bottomed out there in offroad mode - got it into super extended, dug a deeped hole and then got a tractor to pull me out! Some times you just gotta admit defeat :oops:

Been pulled out by a tractor, no shame in that. Got pulled out of deep snow last week by an Audi Allroad, now that's embarassing!!! Mind you I did get stuck on a single track road pulling over to let him round!

did you have deflated MTRs ? Try left right steering movement ? Looks pretty slippery stuff there, but been through worse on standard tyresThere's one wheel on my wagon, but i'm still rollin' along, it's the cherokee, they're after me, but I'm singing a happy song
been there...done that...it happens to us all...The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

Yep no way on standards, that looks familiar stuff to hear, sometimes 2.7tons just wants to go south! Been there whilst out alone on night, lots of shovelling did the trick though, Didn't think Wifey would be to impressed if I asked her to bring the tractor out!It's my mud so keep out!

Being pulled out isn't that bad. If you never got stuck, you have not been really off-road. (open to discussion)
It is getting bad when you have to be digged out:
