I could understand Fords point of view
36" tires killed the overall gear ratio
Chip applied way to much power with not enough gear for pulling and if that was not bad enough then he hit propane bottle............hum
Something had to break

Probably would have been OK with out the chip and propane, but just a dog with the big tires, still capable of pulling the load

Some times an overall sanity check of what you are asking a mechanical object to do is required
