We'd ventured into a track that apparently only people with 37"+ tyres go up and had managed to get almost the whole way back to to the road before running into problems. Was a friend of a friend of a friend recovery so not officially by the club, but since they could see we had well setup trucks and all the gear and werent just idiots playing around and had given a good effort of recovering ourselves, infact had spent about 2 hours hand winching with a hi-lift jack to get one truck clear lol. Cost us $200 all up, they guys got to have a bit of a play, we learnt a few lessons that day/night, and everyone was ok and drove home. Big thanks to them. $8k sounds like a rediculous figure. as mentioned before i think you pay a reasonable pre agreed amount and shouldnt be expected to pay for the recoverers broken gear. We agreed on an amount and were made aware that if they needed to get in more gear we would be charged accordingly
How long did it take them to get you out & what did they have to do to recover you ......id never even think of charging someone stuck id come across on a track
Post the contact details.
