Luckily my friend was there in the passenger seat. She gave me the "You really thought that through didn't you?" look. After trying every wrong technique I called my dad for a tow, thinking it would come right out with a tug. No such luck. After barely getting my dads truck out of the area (which was family owned property, luckily) we decided it couldn't be done with the tools we had, or the rain that was coming down still. So we had to wait it out.

Next morning, the rain had stopped and we had found a small winch to pull me out, we grabbed some shovels and went to my forsaken Rover, which was, luckily, still there. We dug the bank out so it was more of a ramp rather than a small cliff, then used the winch until it made tension-full twanging sounds. The car was now half out. Reverse and Low were not cutting it. Then we did what we should have done very first, we borrowed a friends truck, (old Chevy 4x4) and pulled it out in seconds. Minutes later, I was sliding and skidding around, not having learned my lesson. Many more minutes later, we were at the car wash, washing out my entire front half, getting mud and such that had soaked and rubbed in for 15 hours+. During this whole process, we removed several cubic feet of mud from the underside of my car, and inside and around the wheels. What was a fun outing with a friend, turned into a father - son adventure. My Landy now sits happy and not in a river, on the driveway.
Been there done that.

Replaced all bushings on the truck. Took a 20 ton press to knock them all out but not that bad of a job. No snapped bolts, but did spray them every night for the week leading up to the project.
