    He was just testing the durability of the tow hitch. Looks pretty solid to me!

    That takes about 1 or 2 seconds of attention lapse. And it can happen to anyone. I've seen some of the best mess up. This one is not necessarily a poor driver. The P/U is now a Cat F. URS either now has a company truck or it's going to auction or the shredder depending on the damage. Either way that just cost URS some dough. Hopefully the driver is not hurt other than pride.

    I could see if it was a 250/350 with the v10 in transport mode. Ive had those not want to stop while in transport mode standing on the brakes.

    That was how the technical college back home got a brand new 2007 Chevy when they first came out.

    Looks like the "pickup" held up pretty well, I remember a transport driver unloading off the front when I worked at a Buick dealership around 75, Electra 225, and it didn't fare that well!
