Towing a Boat Has Never Looked So Extreme… This Guy Went All Out!
We really don’t have any context for why this video exists, but to be honest, none is really needed, because it’s just plain crazy to watch This guy has loaded up his boat, which appears to be a good sized fishing boat, on the trailer and hooked it up to his Ram pickup and is hauling ass somewhere at a pretty high rate of speed.
Even crazier, the fact that he’s running these speeds through he sand, and we don’t mean there’s a little sand on the roadway. The sand is the roadway, and it’s not slowing this guy down a bit, and neither are the onlookers that are cheering him on. Dodge’s Ram brand of pickups are well known for their towing abilities, offering some of the most impressive capacities in the truck world, but we aren’t sure this is what they had in mind when they built this truck.
Soft, dry sand is notorious for swallowing up even the most capable of pickups, providing almost no traction as the grains simply roll over one another under the tires. That could be the reason this guy has put the pedal to the medal, he doesn’t want to be “that guy” who got his big ol’ pickup stuck in the sand, which we can totally understand. No matter how tricky the surface is, nobody wants to have to call for help to get un-stuck.
Of course, there is always the possibility that the guy is just having fun! While it isn’t exactly our cup of tea, we’re sure strapping a good sized boat to the truck and hitting the sand at a high rate of speed could be a lot of fun, so why not. What do you guys think, why is the driver of this truck hauling his boat so fast in the sand? Let us know what you think in the comments on Facebook. We love hearing from you guys, and we wouldn’t be at all surprised if one of you isn’t either the driver, or the guy who was videoing.
