Reversed onto it, back wheels dropped down and then the front ones. Rear wheels would not grip (even with TC) but rear slid onto sodden turf. Could not reverse and could not go forward. Reason for not being able to proceed forward?

Well, those wheel drops had placed me in a recently scoured gully made by excessive water due to the heavy rains, The created void was about 10 inches deep and the width was 18 inches. How do I know? The front wheel is 18 inches and the vehicle could not immediately climb the 10 inches either going forward or in reverse.

Who would have thought it?

I bet that was a bit of a shock
How did you get out?
