So here is what happened on my way home from the airport. Ok so I get a phone call from a buddy of mine (fellow XJ driver) saying he ran out of gas about 100 yards from the gas station. He asked me if I had a gas can and I said yeah at home. Well, I was gonna go get it and I said forget it... I'll just tow you to the gas station. That's when I discovered he wasnt in his Jeep but his work truck. I said.... Let's give it a try. Pulled up, tow strap hooked up and pulled. Actually had no problem towing him. After that I needed to jump him. Man I love my XJ!!

I've towed that very same truck, twice, broke my winch cable the second time. First time was in that exact spot your at in the picture. You would think he would learn after a couple of tries!

Does pulling in reverse count as towing??

Don't got any pics of it but I ended up pulling my friends dads stuck bulldozer out of a hole back to his house, other than that just a few broken down vehicles for my father and one of my buddies.
