Call me crazy, but wouldn't it be a lot easier to pull it out if it was right-side up first? Or did the owner say, "Go ahead and make sure this thing is guaranteed to be totaled?" 😄

No, this is probably one of those Tacoma’s with the Chuck Norris signature on it. They’re using it to grade the trail. It’ll still drive like new once returned to rubber side down.

That seemed unnecessarily destructive. Winch it upright with a ground anchor and roll it downhill

Seems like a perfectly legit recovery to me. Even if a vehicle gets stuck upright, we usually tip it over on its side and then recover it. That way we protect the wheels.

Why is an old ram diesel always involved in these videos?

At the beginning of this portion of the trail, they have a cross bone and skull painted on a large rock. I went down it anyway. Where he must have flipped. Even if his crew had winches, which it doesnt look like they did. It would have been tough recovery.
