hey guys, I was looking through some old pictures, when I ran across these I had a good laugh. Thought I'd share them with you. This was before I bought my truck, and I believe my dad was away for a couple days on business with his Suburban .... so I couldn't use that... I needed to pull this stump out, but my only choices were my delta, or my mom's 1993 Regency 98 :lol: since the 98 had a trailer hitch I tried that one first. I had to cut a couple of the big roots, but it got the job done :lol:

Awesome!
My car used to have a trailer hitch...it too pulled quite a bit back in the day...a rather large UHAUL trailer full of junk (dressers, furniture, and stuff).
That has the 3.8, right? Good stuff! :eat:

:lol: well... that wasn't really my intent for posting this, I just thought it looked kinda funny to see an Olds 98 pulling a stump out of the ground.

I had to pull a huge rock about 4 feet in my from lawn, so we chained it up, and hooked it onto my rear axle, I had to go into Low gear and tug it, I had to "rock: it a lil bit (no pun intended) and then I got it goin, the stone was like 2 feet under ground too, but the car pulled it! (my car was on the street)

I think I might have some pics, or a video even!! Ill see what I can 'dig' up
