LOL, about a million years ago I was on a job in El Centro.

We had a Sunday off and cruised up to Glamis 'cause there was nothing better to do. It was El Centro for Pete's sake.
One of our competitors tagged along in his new service truck, complete with service bed full of tools (2 wheel drive dually). Heavy tools.
Kinda like an older version of this:


We sat there on the end of the pavement and watched everyone else having fun with their sand toys and our competitor could barely stand it.

One of my co-workers got that evil look and said, " hey you know you can go out there just like they can. you have 6 wheels and a big truck, there's no reason you can't tear it up like they are".
I just snickered.

With a little more prodding, they guy jumped in his new truck and floored it into the sand, only to sink up to the door in seconds.
I have no idea how he got that 8000+ lb. truck out, I had other places to be
