Not so much what I did TO my XK, but what I did WITH my XK today. (Well, actually yesterday, and in 99 degree heat)
I yanked out two dead juniper trees/bushes. Two out of several others just died.
I rigged up webbing and a block to the weeping willow tree since I couldn't get an inline pull.
The little trees were only about five feet tall, but the Jeep was getting dragged a bit until the roots popped out like champagne corks. I guess pulling them up by hand was certainly not going to happen.
