4x4 Pick up truck vs. tractor?

[LD1]

Hmmmmmm I wonder what would happen if I hooked my L4200 to my Duramax Diesel 4x4 ??????

see my sig

"there's only one way to find out"

You'll never know till you try! Be sure to post some pics

If weight and traction coefficient were = it would come down to HP/speed where that HP occurs in lowest gear.

I'm guessing the truck weighs 1500-2000 lbs more. In low gear I'm sure either one will have more than enough power to spin the wheels. Angle of the chain would need to be level to make it fair. Wheels speed makes a difference and the truck would definately have more of that. pulling surface will determine the ammount of parts breakage

Truck will win then based on weight. Good thot on chain hookup. Wheel speed not an issue unless you are moving and throwing huge amts of dirt-jet propulsion. Best traction is at creep slip rate otherwise.

It depends on the surface and type of tires. If the truck has street tires and the tractor has ags, the only way the truck will win is if it is on pavement or very hard pack clay, otherwise it won't be able to put that HP to the ground. Now if the truck has some serious mud tires, like boggers, then the truck will have it in almost any condition. Likewise if the tractor has turfs, I give the edge to the truck in any condition.

Actually wheel speed does make a difference. Being a redneck I've been stuck quite a few times and under various conditions while testing the abilities of trucks, 4-wheelers, etc. I can say for sure that slow spinning wheels won't get a vehicle unstuck or up a muddy hill as easilly as fast spinning wheels. I'm not sure if this agrees with the laws of physics, but it does make a difference. Partially from cleaning the tires and maybe centrifugal force has something to do with it? I agree that if you can keep from spinning the wheels you're better off though.

I call BS unless the nissan had some monster ags on it and some serious gear reduction.

I'm not very good at reading the foreign language but could make it out as 4wd and 2900kg which is about 6300lbs. The nissan is about 2100kg which is about 4700lbs. No way would it win unless the tractor was in neutral

Yeah that's a little hard for me to believe too. More info please, any pics or youtube videos? Was it something you personally watched?
