Watching someone solo recover a rolled Lexus GX is a good reminder not to wheel alone.
He was able to get the truck righted using an HF winch. But if you watch the videos, you'll see him crossing under winch cables that are supporting the full weight of his truck. To move them, he has to keep his kinetic rope under tension to hold the truck as he repositions the winch. That's sketchy. Especially because he doesn't use a winch dampener or even a blanket, as far as we can see.The off-roader also runs the winch on a battery that only charges when the car is on.
That he got out safely is a testament to his problem-solving capabilities and experience. But watching this video should remind any aspiring overlander or off-roader what it takes to go it truly alone. If he had a second vehicle—even a small one, with no winch—he would have a far safer list of options.
