They can use that to advertise. Sure is badass when you can pull a semi with trailer through the snow with your pickup.

I remember watching that on the news when that storm hit not too long ago. I emailed the link to my buddy that has an 06 F350. He got a kick out of it. Also, I told him to take special note of the F2/350 parked behind the semi in the beginning of the vid...

The duramax vid is a much better display of pulling power. The expedition just pulled it for a second to get back in the groove and after that the 18-wheeler looked like it was going to run the Expedition over. I do feel that any 1/2 ton or 3/4 four-wheel drive truck could have done the same given the snow and loss of traction.
