Not with a diesel but back in the day I pulled a 18 wheeler with 26 tons of hay plus the weight of the truck and trailer through the mud to the stack yard. Less than a 1/4 mile and didn't go fast. Oh yeah it was with a 1/2 ton Chevy with a 292 6 and a 4 speed. It's nothing compared to what alot of people have done. That was a couple of years before I got my drivers license.

Some years ago I was working the afternoon shift at the 747 hangar, it was a hot evening so the doors were open at each end. The sky turned black and we got a call from the tower there was a tornado warning out and large hail. We decided to close the doors but first we would get as many aircraft inside as we could. The hangar would hold 4 narrow body easily so guys took the two tractors that were around and started to drag in a couple of 727's that left one space empty but no tractor.
There was a 4 cylinder Cummins baggage tractor parked so I grabbed that and a couple of guys and raced out to a DC9-32 unladen weight 60,000 lb, gross 109,000 lb. As the small baggage tractor pulled the DC9 it started to rain and when the wet tires got into the hangar the wheels started to spin on the smooth concrete. At this point we can't get the last door closed so guys started to climb onto the tractor to get some traction. The tires spinning slowly dried them and restored traction and we made it into the hangar and closed the doors. I don't think anyone thought that the little Cummins could do it but it sure gave me a new respect for the little diesel engine.
