actually it is supposed to have skinny tires. with that clearance that truck can reach the bottom of a mud pit and the skinny tires makes it easier to get traction on the bottom

I think it looks kinda goofy. Good place for a dodge cab.

seems like it had no traction. Took it four times to get up a snow bank. Even my RBV can do better that that.

I want to see it drive through this 3 foot deep snow that they say it can.

A running start at a snow bank from a dry paved parking lot is not a fair test.

I think a smaller rig with smaller tires that have a much taller sidewall so you have the ability to air down would do the same or equally well as that did in their little parking lot test site.

nothing personal but that snow is nothing i don;t drive through pretty much daily. with no lift kit. the banks that size require a little bit of wiggling but don't present much trouble.

so yes Id like to see how it does in some snow at least 6 feet deep.
