The only thing that proves is he either doesn't know how to drive or he's doing it on purpose. I can do that with my 2wd.<O</O

only thing i say to your comment is that yes a 2wd car could do what hes doing, but for the OP's side i say i wouldnt take my brand new 45k F150 into a swamp and burry it so maybe hes just goofing off a little and not wanting to hurt his truck?

Roof height was right about 7ft. It hard to measure the center roofline from the outside of the truck but that was the closest measurement we could get.

exactly, we just went out there to play around a little. There was no deep mudholes or anything like that. Just a very slick little spot by our job. He was in 2wd most of the time. Mainly just wanted to see how the truck handled sliding around with the stability control system and thats the reason I posted this video. To show the guy asking about the system how it responds to an offroad situation.

You're correct. There are a lot of goofy people.
