6.4 F-350 got DRUG by a 5.4 Triton F-250
Happened last night at Fireball...

We even gave the powerstroke 8 inches of roll and still drug him backwards...

(Yes, I was in the 250)

Also want to add that the exhaust on the F-350 smelled like a swimming pool.

What gears were in each truck? Auto or manual? Was the 350 a dually? More info man! The 350 guy could have just been a crappy driver...

I would think traction/tires would be a huge issue as well...?

Either way the F350 should have out weighed the 250 by at least 1000#.. Thats just bad!!

Both auto - 350 was a dually.

The rear of the dually was hopping REAL bad...

I drove a buddies 5.4 F250, I doubt that thing could drag it's own shadow. The 6.4 guy must not have had a clue.

This proves my point. it is all about traction.... I've said before that a yugo could pull a 1 ton truck if it had the traction, and enough power to pull the weight. No biggie at all here....

That's crazy I drive an 07 F-250 5.4 everyday for work, had an 06 as well and honestly it will just barely spin the tires in mud in 2 wheel drive.
