Where are the weight police?

I am guessing he used granny gear?

The old chevy commercial is a bit more impressive than the Toyota one. There is a fair bit of weight sitting on that chevy. Plus it is a square body, much better looking pickup then the tundra. I am willing to bet that 350 is making less then half the power that tundra made as well.

Wow. I like how the bed looks bent and the front wheels are almost off the ground. But hey at least they acknowledged they were overloaded and only towing on the flat.

Especially when you consider 187 tons is 374,000 pounds. That's impressive. Looks like about a 1977 year model. My dad had one similar to that when I was in high school, I felt pretty cool stepping on the throttle and listening to the 4 barrel roar.
