Last week I tied onto a 145,000 lb B-train that was stuck in the mud. It's amazing what you can do with a good tow strap and a little truck if your not afraid to use it.
So you slammed into the end of the strap then floored it and "rolled coal" with your deleted modded chipped sooper deezil pickup? :D:D - 4x4ordExplorer IIILast week I tied onto a 145,000 lb B-train that was stuck in the mud.

only thing this showed me was 3 stupid people met that day and one was smart enough to wait for the other 2 to brake traction. Did you hear them revving instead of a slow steady pull?
All three of 'em are dumber than a box of rocks!!! What a complete waste of time, effort and equipment! :h …But it was entertaining, kinda like wrestling, last REAL sport in America! :B

Perfect illustration of traction verses loss of traction.:B
I have a great fondness for the ol' '93~ Cummins Rams. Beautiful specimen.
Yup. Rednecks seem to lose to lose grip (pun intended) with reality when it comes to tug of war. It is not about the most powerful truck. Its about who loses traction first. - HannibalExplorerPerfect illustration of traction verses loss of traction.:B

More impressive pickup pulling - and with a manual trans to boot: Clicky
I bet the driver & the Ford in the tug-o-smoke could have done the same thing... good driver knows how to run his truck...
But that old Dodge would turn some impressive HP graphs on a dyno ... - The_Mad_NorskyExplorer

Agree completely. I always had to save for any vehicles I owned.
I could never see purposely abusing a vehicle in that manner.
About the only thing it proves is that there was more than one person dumb enough to do it. - BedlamModerator

That was a 6.0 PSD with a newer front clip according to the video notes.
