Three-quarter ton, with a 350 CID V8. That’s pretty impressive even if it was just level ground.
Not really. On level ground, it doesn't take much to get a lot of weight rolling.
Now if they gave a 10sec 0-60 time, I would be impressed...or heck even climbing a 2% grade...but just getting it rolling on level ground isn't much of a test.
Dodge tows a logging truck up hill.
Video claims to be a modified cummins dyno'd at 581hp & 1357 lb-ft...That's pretty comparable to your average semi-tractor power output, so for a short distance in low gear, not too surprising he could do it.
So that is kind of impressive but wildly different from a 70's vintage 350 that might be putting out 250hp and a fraction of the torque.
