Toyota vs Dodge vid (hope it's not old)

[boston_kevin]

Anyway, the video is more about illustrating traction than power. Once the Dodge loses traction, it's all over. If the Dodge had the same advantages as the Tundra (traction control and/or 4wd system), I'm sure it would be a much better comparison.

Hence the earlier comments about bleach around the tires. Any tire that loses traction that fast was either bleached or a POS anyway, and would have failed no matter which truck it was on.

I think everyone has dismissed this as a fake anyway...

I don't think there was anything "fake" about the video. It's 100% legit....but the problem is that it doesn't really prove anything substantial.

Did anyone mention if the vehicles were both 4wd? Imagine if the Tundra was in 4wd and the Dodge wasn't.

I wouldn't think they used bleach either. Any spinning tire will smoke like that after a few seconds of spinning. I used to get 10 times that amount of white smoke from both tires of my old Mustang, and I never used bleach!

I doubt highly that the Ram is front wheel drive:

The point is that it might not have been in 4wd. We'll never know for sure.

and my point is that front tires spinning=4wheel drive

Great, but the video doesn't show the front tires spinning.
