My cousin and I got stuck today offroading. I was wondering if anyone had good techniques to get unstuck! We just pushed and pushed and finally it budged and we got out!

Stelmon,

If you're going off road, you need recovery equipment. A hi-lift jack, a winch, a tow strap and a second vehicle...

1st rule ...... don't off road alone :)
2nd rule make sure you have appropriate attachment points for vehicle recovery. ie tow hooks
3rd then consider equipment, hi lift jack tow strap perhaps a come-along

have fun but safe fun

All off the above plus a cumalong "not sure I spelled it right" will get you out of alot of trouble. If you get one get a heavy duty one not a cheap one. chad1

If you use a cumalong, make sure you hook up to a tree that will hold. ;) I had a buddy that pulled a tree right on his truck.
