I tried pulling with Navigator on a tow rope for pulling out cars from the snow but it pulled one hook end off one end of rope. Small Tow truck came with a chain and said he would easily get it out with no problem. I said you are going to need a bigger truck[emoji1] I was only 3 inches deep and the warranty for 1 year covered 2 hours with one truck or 1 hour if they needed two trucks. Pulled right out no problem with slightest pull ever I think. I don’t think he pulled hard enough to hurt anything! He hooked to hitch . It was a small chain I thought sure it would break

I watched as a front end loader towed a high end coach after being stuck in sand as i was he bent the stainless steel skirt very bad I was asked if i wanted to be towed, I declined. I went to Home Depot bought a 4 X 8 sheet of plastering lathe had then cut it in half,
put jacks down did a little digging under tires put one under each of the the duals and brought the jacks up just barely touched the gas and walked it out no problem

With hydraulic leveling jacks this may very well be the safest way, not necessarily the quickest, to get unstuck.
