I nearly pulled a person in a small car up a hill in the snow earlier, they were delighted to see me in my 4x4 that I pay more tax, insurance and fuel for.

And with that in mind I thought f@ck em, if they didn't want to get stuck in snow then they would have a 4x4 wouldn't they!!

The only people I will pull apart from family is those in serious danger or in my way. Other 4x4's also would get assistance if needed. Most of the year we are frowned upon even though I use my car to pull horses on a regular basis and could not do without it.
