Epic Dodge Fail Turns Into Comeback Victory for the Ages



A Ram gets A-framed by a SuperDuty during a tug-of-war. You'd think that would be the end of this Dodge Fail story, but then things get weird.

Read the rest on the FTE homepage. >>

The Ram buckled because of the cable attachment being up high. Notice they hooked down to his bumper for round 2.

And the Ram's rear drive shaft was unaffected by this? Seems hard to believe.

And..
They are completely different setups. Dodge has all the weight in the bed and a less aggressive tire so it is putting a lot more contact area of tire onto the ground on top of the extra traction aided by all that weight. It looks like its all in good fun though.
