| Not taking into account the guy who hooked up the chains is an idiot, it just goes to show, truck doesnt matter, driver does. | |

| yea i dunno what the guy that hooked up the chain was thinking. But its like some one else said. Throw a load in the back of that ford and it wouldnt squat at all. Throw that same load in the back of the dmax and it would squat like hell lol. | |

I dont know about the squating thing, but the chain hookup on that Ford is all kinds of wrong. | |

| And what's the deal with the Dmax ??? Is he just playing with the Ford? Check the brake lights on the Chev.. | |

| He might be. But that idi sounds vicious and his higher chain mount gives him a huge advantage. | |

| Went back and watched it again. Looks to me like the guy was using his brakes to keep the rears from spinning. | |

| I agree with rob on this one... Chain placement was all wrong way to much angle. The chain should've been straight!
On a different note though/ That S10 blazer is sexy as hell!! | |

| not necessarily.. if 1 stopped spinning, and slowly eased back into it, WITHOUT spinning their tires, it would be easier to drag the other truck along | |

| you would think so. I dont reckon chain placement would have made much of a difference in that case either since lifting on the back would just put more pressure on the front axle. | |
