VIDEO My summary: - they both can tow 12.5k lbs anywhere, even in the toughest conditions, with ease. - the Duramax exhaust brake works too good? - the GM's hitch is heavily reinforced and you m...

4x4ord,
I se you are finally understanding WHAT and only WHAT force is turning the drive wheels! Vehicle motion and velocity/up a grade motion etc is controlled solely by the amount of twisting force (torque is what it's called) applied to the drive axle which then turns the wheel against the surface the tire is on and thus moves the vehicle as in distance made good in and with moving the vehicle.
No brakes being applied and/or insufficient torque applied on a grade surface results in gravity overcoming the rolling resistance either in a forward or backward direction. Horsepower need not apply as it is merely a theoretical calculation which does absolutely nothing for force turning any vehicle axle or drive wheels.
Yes, a horse can pull or push a vehicle with having a type of connecting device etc but that does not forcefully twist the vehicle's axle in the right or left rotation direction as they will be free wheeling when the vehicle is being either pushed or pulled by an exterior force being applied.
Why is this so hard to understand??? factual knowns and backed by all data 101...
