Every once in a while, we come across a video that regardless of what type of vehicle you are into, it is just plain too cool to pass up. We were browsing through some YouTube videos and came across a good ole video of truck tug of war.

These videos are popping up all over the internet nowadays and it seems like you can predict what will happen as soon as the video starts. This one starts off that way but then takes a completely different course, one that even the driver of the Dodge pickup probably never expected.

tow2This Dodge Ram, loaded with more weight than we can count, takes on a Ford Super Duty in an all-out tug of war. The first pull did not go as planned for the Ram driver, as his truck gets A-framed by the Super Duty.

With his truck looking like a teepee, they bring over the backhoe and forklift. One would assume that they would help get the truck off the line, but then something magical happens.

Between the backhoe and the forklift, they straighten out the pickup and get it ready for round two. All at once, something incredible happens: the Dodge grips the dirt and pulls the Super Duty to the cone.

For his valiant efforts, the driver of the Dodge gets $1,000. The Ford owner however, gets nothing but ridicule. Which sounds worse to you–bending your truck in half or losing in a tug of war? Tell us in the comments below!
