I guess that would be a Chivy commercial.

 

Pretty dumb..... Would have been funny if he got it lost in the smoke and blasted that curb sideways.... 'Splain that to Daddy or the Sales Manager.....

 

Says nothing about the truck but, says everything about the driver.

 

Maybe its a RENTAL truck....

 

I've done that kind of **** in old beater trans ams and such, but I'd never do it to an $80k truck.

 

I've done burnouts in my current truck, but they're small things just to prove that I can do it. The only time I had enough power to really smoke the tires was when I drove to Long Beach from Colorado. 6000' elevation makes a big difference in available power.

I would never roast a brand new set of tires like that. Plus, the stink is nasty and seems to stay with the truck.

 

Awesome. Just totally awesome. I have seen this deal play out, let me fill you all in on what happens next. See, junior don't care 'bout those tires, next stop will be the off road shop where this truck will be transformed into a proper 'Bro-dozer' with a lift kit and way-to-big wheel/tire combo a couple of weight ratings below what he just fried. Maybe a big stack too, and surely a tune to completely void the warranty. Nice! Not too long after, he'll have a mess of trouble with the truck, caused no doubt by his expert driving and cool mods.. Of course the dealer will void the warranty clear back to Louisville Truck, and Mr. Owner will have to pay to get the thing fixed. Might take a while to raise the coin, probably got 72 month financing with his $2000 down payment and doesn't have a lot of loose cash for costly repairs. No matter, after 18 months he'll be tired of this 'POS' truck anyway, and trade it in on a Ram and start the process all over again.......

 

^^Pretty accurate / funny assessment.

 

I think he watches too many episodes of Gas Monkey Garage. All that guy does is do burnouts

 

This is depressingly accurate of toooo many people my age, early 20's. Some of us grow out of it, the others just havent gotten that 'oh schitt' repair bill yet.
You're either lying to yourself or not a auto enthusiast if you cant admit to exercising your rig once in a while....but then again i own a 10 thousand dollar truck, quite a bit different than these new luxurytruckmobiles!

 

I couldn't get the tires to turn on my gas 6.2 / 3.73 axle rigs...except on wet pavement, so no worries there. On my diesels, I'll admit to chirping the tires once in a while...but I surely wouldn't be doing burnouts or donuts.

 

not that I've ever tried to do a burnout in mine but I never though that they were capable of this amount of tire smoking! kind of impressed to be honest, and it's not mine so I don't have to pay the repair bill either. Heck, my 2014 Mustang has never done a serious burnout in my hands so I guess this just isn't my thing.

 

The trick to burnouts is getting the wheels spinning in the first place and then using a little brake pressure or sharp cornering to keep the vehicle from rocketing away until there is liquid rubber on the surface of the tires. Breaking traction can be caused by a hard turn so the rear end breaks away and then is easier to spin or by power braking and using raw horsepower. Big horsepower makes it easier but sometimes with the right conditions it is not always necessary.
