Angry getting tired of f350 driver bragging

You guys think my 2500 can pull a f350,both stock,his isnt 4x4 but does have a steel pipewelders type body with a welder on it which adds a good bit of weight to rear.If we did hook em up,what gear should I use,should I use tow/haul,4lo or 4 hi.Never done this before but I WILL DRAG THIS GUY AROUND THE PARKING LOT AT WORK......It might take me awhile to get a smarty and trans mods before I do it but I WILL DO IT...... any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks Rooster

in 4x4 you'll drag him all over the place...if u have a manual you'll totally destroy him...but 2 wheel drive vs 2 wheel drive u may be in trouble because of the weight and the fact that he probbaly has 4.10 gears in that 1 ton

what he said

But if you must pull on 2wd, lower ur tire pressure and put weight over the axles.. that will greatly increase ur chances on concrete..

Assuming you have a 3.55 rear end and a 3/4, he will for sure pull you in 2 wheel drive. Because he has a 1 ton, and probably 4.10 rear end. Get a bunch of your buddys to laod up in the cab with you and put some feed sacks or some kind of weight in the bed. I pulled a duramax once with...but I hid 10 suitcase weight in my toolbox...woops!

Get the biggest drop hitch you can find like a 10- 12 inch one and turn it up side down. That way your hieght will be picking up on his truck taking traction away from him and he will be pulling down on yours giveing you traction.

You could just do the old hustler trick and install an interrupt switch to knock out your brake lights.

"Oh, that's unfortunate, you goosed it and lost traction and then I pulled you... Man, I never would've thought that my stock 130 RWHP 1990 Dodge could take out your 400 HP Powerstroke... Man, that's amazing! What was on the line again? Tank of Diesel?"

I was going to go with Beagles idea. Wait till he starts spinning then drag him.

a guy about my age with a harley davison 3/4 hooked to a stock 3/4 dodge hemi, both 04s i believe, harley with edge juice and straigt pipe got his butt handed to him, he hammered down in 4 wheel and twisted off the rear drive shaft which took the fuel pump off the inside of the frame rail and also busted the slip yoke on the front drive shaft, and then they pulled it on a trailer backwards and the truck that pulled it back to monroe city was only a regular cab so the owner of the harley truck and 2 of his buddies rode in it on the trailer and for some reason i guess from being backwards on the trailer it created alot of windnoise and without thinking he opened the drivers door to slam it shut again , lol, yeah, 180 degree opening door, i know of all this because i painted the a pillar new door and fender for the truck at work, when i saw it i had to smile!
the guy in the dodge just eased into it, harley boy put it to the floor, tell the guy he better be ready cause you goin ***** out, then just ease into it and hope he tears his up, the drop hitch upside down will work very well also!

If you are using 4 wheel drive you will drag him wherever you want to go. Just put it in 4 low, 1st gear, and when its time to go, just roll into the throttle and you will be on your way I take it this guy thinks a lot of his ford?
