There is a farmer who wants to get across a recently tilled, thoroughly rain soaked, 1 mile wide muddy field as quickly as possible. He tries his stock pick-up truck, but it quickly sinks up to it’s axles. He can have any land vehicle in the world, with the exception of a hovercraft or a train on tracks. What should he choose? Later in the day, he has to pull a trailer with 1000 lbs of cargo across the same field as quickly as he can. If it is possible, what type of vehicle should he choose?
Assuming the poor farmer’s tractor didn’t work, he should break out the monster truck. Or even the miniature monster truck.
I would say something that has the maximum of surface-area contact with the ground so that the load is spread as much as possible; perhaps a vehicle with broad caterpillar tracks.
One of these would do the job, too. Assuming he had one handy.
Or one of these.
Or even one of these.
Would a 4 wheeler be able to pull a 1,000 pound trailer across a muddy field?
The Honda things? No.
I think one of these should do the trick 
Jesus H Christ! WTF is that thing?
And your link doesn’t work properly, alterego. This one should do the trick:

(And having found that, I also found out what it is).
A hovercraft–with or without eels.
Drop your panties, Sir William; no hovercraft allowed. See the OP.
A team of oxen.
OK, because you put the link in your post. Are you saying that it was incorrect?
If you read the OP carefully, The Long Road, you’ll note that there’s two questions. The first doesn’t involve a trailer, the second one does.
a coal mining device.
hovercraft hating bastards.
As for the OP. I would say how about mounting a jet engine on the farmers truck? either that a high powered heater pointed at the field.

I would use this:

They will pretty much go through anything.
I also like this version of it:

Really? I read it and it says nothing about having two vehicles.
If you were to read the OP carefully, you would notice that it uses the term vehicle, not vehicles. How about following your own advice. Crazy shit.
