Well, my poor little 2200 just takes my abuse and keeps on tickin. I was knocking down briars with the FEL and promptly got stuck. Got my son's F150 4WD, too muddy to get it out. Finally went to the rock pile, wheelbarrelled a load of rocks into the mud, put it in 4WD and backederout!!! Tough little tractor. Hope it'll forgive me.

I had something similar happen to mine. I was mowing the bank of a shallow creek that runs through my property when the MMM became high centered. When I tried to back out I learned very quickly how efficiently bar tires can dig DEEP holes. I grabbed my garage floor jack and used it to lift up the ass end of the tractor. I then threw some firewood down in the holes and used a shovel to dig out around the mower deck. Finally, it just walked itself right out. Needless to say, I don't straddle the bank in that area anymore! ....

Even though it was raining pretty good, after I got it out, I lowered the FEL so the front wheels were off the ground and hosed off the tires and underside of the tractor. I think I got most of the mud off. Hopefully no damage. ....
