LMAO! That's hilarious!

Not fair that's a double whammy way to kick a guy while he's down. First bash my SRW theory then bash my favorite brand and truck engine!

I know its all in good fun though.

Thanks for sharing.

We still prefer our SRW rigs. Just picked up our 2013 Cummins Ram and a new Low Pro Trailer. This is our 5th out of 6 that is SRW not DRW. I do respect and like DRW trucks. SRW, especially when properly equipped (like a Super Single Semi), can tow just as good. Now a DRW will shine while hauling payload like a dump bed, load of block, or slide in truck camper.

Not trying to debate this again, just showing that we are still having success with our SRW trucks. Over 1 million accident free miles, with a perfectly clean DOT record.

Funny video though!

I know Kevin, just kidding. Most of those tug-of-war battles/videos are all about height of your chain point, and fractions of an inch matter.

Nice setup!

No wonder the middle truck is smoking tires. The lead trucks chain is lifting the middle truck up do to the angle.
