Semi-retired farmers with tractors, other people off-roading in older stuff will help you out for a few bucks or free. In Ontario there now is a off road recovery facebook group where guys post where they are stuck and hopefully another member is nearby to pull you out. When I used to go exploring with my Tracker, the plan was if I got stuck close to home I'd just get my tractor and drag it out. Farther away from home I would be more cautious and never did get stuck, but I did turn around a few times. You can still have fun without breaking stuff or risking too much. The good thing about an old truck is you can leave it there overnight with a note in the window and come back and get it out.What happens if you break down 5 miles down the trail with the 20 year old vehicle? No way I'd wanna go into the wilderness towing a trailer with a 20 year old Ford Explorer, Blazer... .
