No 4x4 traction in 4 inches of snow??

By the way, coming home yesterday on the freeway, with a light rain, wet roads, traveling about 60 mph, I goosed it a little to change lanes. And the rear end broke loose from the pavement. The truck slide sideways a little bit until I let off the gas.

 

 

 

 

If you can break the rear loose this easy, then you need tires...end of story.

 

With good tires and sitting right about 450HP/800TQ in the last truck that had LSD, 6spd manual, and 4.10s; I had to work to break the tires loose on wet roads at any speed. However the junk BFG rugged trails it came with, I could haze them on dry pavement at 65mph in 6th, just getting into it.

 

Anybody else read this^^^^ LOL

 

 

Yeah ok, haze them at 65mph what BS.

 

 

 

Yup, with a modified diesel, its actually easy if the tires don't stick...I could catch all six gears if I ran it hard enough.

Okay bud. You realize who your talking to right? I have twin turbo set up. I would eat ur truck alive. I'm hear to tell you. You aren't "hazing" your tires at 65 mph. I'm waiving the BS flag. Good bye.

I was thinking the same thing going over 100 km a hour and letting loose your tires is not going to happen in less you have bad traction.
