K5 blazer with a 350 and 6" lift that belonged to my E6 that kept calling my T a Colorado, pulled him on AWD and 4lo. It wasn't balls to the walls but just enough for him to spin his wheels in place and to no long call her a Colorado. The winning factor for me was the wight I believe see how his K5 looked like body and 37" tires.

I worked with a guy that kept giving me s*** for buying h2. Its an 04 6" lift 37" tires while hes driving 2009 awd turbo subaru. He really thought he made enough torque/hp to be able win a pull. We work out in the boonies. In an empty parking lot we hooked up to see what he could. I just sat with my foot on the brakes while he wasted his tires. Finally decided to see if I could pulll him and while he kept spinng I drug him off the parking lot and left him half way high centered on the curb with a broken rear bumper. Told him he might be fast but im not limited on where I can go. He made a gas joke a couple days later and told him ill just park ontop of his and use it to save me gas lol. We became friends after that.

Well my weight (offially at 6610lbs) has tires made to grip while he had tire made to drift on. Wasnt intending on even pulling, but he kinda had it coming hahaha. And me pulling didnt break his bumper. It was how he hooked up the tow strap (somewhere on his under carriage) I just used the rear tow hooks. So the angle I guess put too much stress. I only pulled him about 20 feet and thought I stopped before he hit the curb. Surprised that I was able just run right over the curb with no loss on the towing power. Oh and he sold his subi and bought a 4x4 silverado. Said an h2 was out of his budget. Almost had a convert, dang it!

I had a buddy of mine get a '14 jeep wrangler 2 door and he kept telling me that he could pull me cause he had a 6 cyl and i had a 5. i didn't want to look like a wimp so we ended up going to a parking lot and hooked our trucks to each other. All his trash talk had me convinced he was ganna pull me so i put it in 4low with my locker on. i ended up pulling him quite a bit then we tried it again in normal 4hi unlocked and i still pulled him. i have a recording of it but all you can see are the tail lights moving.

It was close. He had the stock street tires on his jeep and it was only a 2 door so I had some weight on him. We did it at the beach about a month later and we both dug holes in the hard sand. I got out and had to pull him out.

I'm thinking about pulling chains with my friends 2003 tahoe w/ 265/70/16's and a 5.3L V8 with 280hp & 295lbs. Curb weight 5042lbs
It would be close

You should beat em video it of course then send it over
You should have more grip but less torque off the line, unless ur in 4LO

Do the 2003 model 5.3's have a higher amount of low end torque? I thought my 08 model would of had more.
Not really sure, but when you slap 35s on your truck you effectively made your final drive ratio longer (less torque).
The amount of torque you put on the road is flywheel torque x trans gear reduction x diff gear reduction. (320 x 3.06 x 4.10) Once you put larger tires, upgrade 32s to 35s, you reduce the diff gear reduction value so your final torque is less (320 x 3.06x ~ 3.95)!
If you can get the other trucks numbers U'll be able to compare !

When I was in college, there was a guy who kept parking in my parking spot. I had an FJ40 that would start on its starter every 3rd time (when cold) - so I had to park on a rise and bump start it. I asked for, and was assigned this spot. I worked as a bartender, so I'd get to the dorm late and nearly every night this yahoo would park in my spot. We went through it all, from asking nicely, telling him the problem, getting the dean involved (at 2 am mind you). Nothing worked, final straw was one night I went to his room, again, to get him to move and he told me to "f off".... I don't do that well. The guy's car was a mid 70s Delta 88. Around the parking lot was welded 8" pipes to keep people from parking on the lawn, and to demark the area when it snowed. I put a chain on his car, and pulled it over one of those pipes. It was a great teeter totter. Of course, it's snowing like snowmaggedon so by morning there is no evidence to suggest how his car got there. About 10 am, I get a knock on my door from the dean - we go outside to see this guy's car on the pipe. Dean asks me if I have any idea how the car got there, I said "gravity, it must has slid down the parking lot." Dean looked at me, chuckled, then asked if I'd pull his car off - I said no, too much liability. The dean said "that's understandable"... the guy was fit to be tied, but I am bigger, and that was going to be the end. Later I saw him on campus and told him "no, f you" - and if you touch my '40, yours will never move again.
He never parked in my spot again
