the frames are built to be flexible like that so they dont break anything.

Some of those trucks are built to pull, but are also daily drivers on the road. I've watched lots of videos from the Quebec pulls, and know a few guys that have gone for the weekend.

The first vid is from the truck Rodeo they do every year in Notre-Dame-du-Nord, Québec. I went many times, it's awesome!!

Haven't been there last 2 years, no time.

Countless trucks.....
