you wanna go ghetto? my girlfriend got her car stuck in the ditch that lined our property (turned too early off of our driveway), so I had to pull her out with the tractor. It's got a ball hitch on the front grille, and the crown vic had a ball hitch. took a towstrap, went bumper to bumper, put the strap on, revved it up and got a running start and yanked that bastard all the way out...IN SAND! WITH A 46 FORD 2N!
