I was stuck once. I foolishly went down a greasy hill and only had 1 way out. Back up.
When I gave up trying to drive out, I reversed the front wheel on my 4x4 Dodge. Tied a wire rope to a tree, put the eye of the rope through a wheel hole. poked my wheel brace through the eye, locked up the brake on the other side, and in 4wd drove up the rope. It wound up on the brake drum. A lot of mucking about, but at the time was short of options. It worked well. Maybe if I'd deflated the tyres from road pressure she might have climbed out on her own, but never had a tyre pump with me.
