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.....
