Says he is a VOAI member, not sure if he is a member here.    While I have no doubt the Valk could have pulled him along the road (not like he was pulling tree stumps or that truck up out of a ditch)..... I don't think that strap around the shock was such a good idea.  It could have been an accident waiting to happen.  Now if he had a hitch to tie the strap to..... that would have been much better.

I saw that article several years ago, and if memory serves me correctly, it was a hoax.

My little electric Club Car at work will tow a 3,800lb Biljax lift.....those electric motors have some serious torque......

I believe the Fat Lady would pull a vehicle.....but.....hooking a strap to one shock doesn't sound too smart to me....... Cheesy Cheesy

I always thought that traction would've been the deciding issue.
