This is fairly cool, but is sort of a "hat trick," as pulling even fabulously heavy loads on flat ground is not terribly difficult. A few years ago, I had a 1994 Chevy S10 4x4 pickup, with the Vortech-6 in it... bone stock. I was working as a fleet manager for a trucking company, and would occasionally be called upon to "bump start" rigs with dead batteries... it was not difficult. My proudest moment, to give you an idea what can be done, was bump starting a slightly- over- gross (at 81,000 lbs.) rig on a (very slight) uphill: I matched up my police- style front push bumper up the the DOT bumper on the rear of the trailer, got the rig up to about 25 MPH with relative ease, and as soon as I backed off, the driver was able to drop the clutch and start the truck. It really wasn't difficult...
