this is another vid of the same scene but you get a better view.
The nissan had to have had weight in the box or 4wd.....It doesn't even look like it's struggling.
I know.....maybe he transplanted a 4.9 into his truck.....hahaha

The Driver in the Ford doesn't know how to handle a truck. He allowed his truck to lose traction first, that is why he lost.
Chances are that Nissan is 4x4 and geared really low. That Ford looked like it was 2wd; the highest gearing it could have is 3.55. If it is an Automatic he was geared higher still.
A lot of it comes down to the driver. My truck can pull itself in half. I have no doubt it could pull any other truck out there - as long as that truck loses traction first.
I'll take on 5.0Torx! Haha. Let's see who loses traction first (you have to promise to keep it out of 4wheel!)

At the time, the case machine had a torque converter option, and the John Deere was a straight clutch machine. Apparently, when they dropped the 'flag', the John Deere would take off like a raped ape pulling the case 350 backwards. However, the torque converter would allow the engine to keep running, and it would eventually transfer enough power to the tracks where the deere would bog down, and stall out. The next thing you know the little case would be pulling the john deere backwards as it belched black smoke out the air cleaner. He said they made quite a few sales with that demonstration.

My dad was a case construction equipment salesman in his early 20's. He told me long ago that one of the things they used to do when trying to sell a John Deere guy a little case 350 bulldozer was hook it up back-to-back with a slightly bigger John Deere Dozer (JD450).

Man, if only I still had my Ford Granada... (250 I-6, 3spd w/overdrive)
I'd let the both of you train-up back bumper to front bumper, and I'd pull you both backwards.... (Until one, or the other of you, put your trucks in gear...)
Now, back to reality....

Bring it on Bubba! Ole' Betsy ain't fast, but when she wakes up, watch out! She's a pullin' workin' mean Mule! Just like her owner!
After I get thru pulling you sideways, we'll race. We'll see who gets to the first mile. We'll need a free weekend, tho..
