Im thinking pushing it out would have worked.. or lowering PSI... agreed that my 1969 snapper comet 8hp mower would and could get it out.

Why would you shut the car off immediately after boosting hard? I'd worry about that more than the crappy camera man..

Not sure i seen anything impressive. The dog could have pulled it out. That would have made a much better vid. And yes, a lawnmower could have tackled it with ease.

Title should be "Staged promotional video - Evo pulls Chevy 1500 across flat grass lot.".

This is alot like that video years ago of the Toureg pulling that 747 across perfectly flat tarmac...they pulled that plane like 6" and then acted like David Copperfield had just made NYC disappear. A frikin equinox could have done it too.

These people have obviously never been to truck pulls where 1500's and F150's pull 10,000lb sleds across ripped up dirt paths.

Even though it is light it would take quite a few people to keep that evo from moving in a tug of war. I think they should have gotten all those people pushing into the evo. Get better traction and have a go.
But ya a lawnmower could have done it.
