Well two things;
#1. anyone of the big three could have done that! He wasn't pulling the full load, just what was needed to get the rig rolling. Likely more then the trucks 28,000# tow rating.
#2 If he was pulling too much would not want that auto trans!
On Edit PS: well thne again the amount the F350 could add would be limited by the traction of the four tires on the about 8,500# truck!! Likely didn't even provide 28,000# pounds of pull before the tires broke traction.
