Tug of war! who would win?

I'd definitely come watch this pull. I got my money on your lil taco if you can get the power on the ground fast enough. Assuming the S10 is an auto since chevy 5 speeds are trash.

 

haha the funny thing about this thread is im sure they are all reading this haha. idk where we would do it. not sure if i wanna do it on the cement

 

I would rather do it on the concrete. Your axles are pretty damn strong, they won't break.

If he's out there... Come at me Adam. You jelly bro?

 

well its not that, i dont really wanna burn my tires up cus they r kinda new and they need to last for a very long time

 

me buddy at work has a dodge Dakota with a small v8. we did a tug a war and i beat him both times. With the locker on her had no chance i was surprised... Now he cant talk shit about my yota i got the bragging rights. except there is a HEMI dodge guy talking trash. I tell him lets take it off road and see if he can keep up!!!! He's scared

 

haha nice. i acually really like those dodge dakotas, nice trucks. i hate the new body styles tho, they r too boxy

 

Lol they call my truck the MicroMachine. But ya I like the new doge rams. With the compartments in the tail gates. but I love my TACO

 

Yeah I know what you mean. I got fresh rubber, cost me $900. Don't wanna do that again for a while.

 

yep i agree, those rams r freaking awesome! i think i would trade my tacoma for a 2011 ram

 

haha yea same, thats about how much i paid for mine.

 

You mad bro?

 

I ain't even mad bro.

 

thats fuckin right we do.

 

alright mother fucker. haha you mad bro! the 6.0 will overtake you and your n*gga beats hahaha. I couldnt beleive this was you

 

Oooh, I wouldn't say all Chevy's are garbage...one of my favorite rigs was a '78 GMC longbed with a 454ci hooked to a Turbo 400 tranny and an NP205 transfer case running a 14 bolt Rear with Detroit locker and a Dana 44 Front, 4" supension lift and 3" body lift running 40" Swampers. I loved that rig...

Wow, this guy sounds educated.

 

Cool story bro

 

This . . .

My wife had an '02 ZR2 Blazer with the same engine. Horsepower was lacking at a mere 190 hp, but 250 lb/ft torque at 2800 rpms lended to the 5,400 lbs towing capacity (as compared to the Tacoma's 3,500 lbs). And that was a small SUV, not a truck. The 4.3L is basically a small block 90 degree V8 with two cylinders cut off the end. All other variables aside, I would think that torque is the more important factor in a "competition" such as this.

 

I had the interesting chance to drive a 93 or so 4.3L chevy s10 blazer. Nice rig, but the thing had a funny handle....so i pulled it. That suv took off really F'in faaast. Turns out it was a handicap throttle and had what seemed like 2" from 0-100% throttle. Boss was laughing so hard he couldnt be mad. Dont know how good they were in quality, but one in good condition has my respect.

 

The 1st gen V6 tacomas had a towing capacity of 5,000 lbs, unless you are talking about the 4 cylinder, yeah those have a capacity of 3,500 lbs. A 1st gen V6 against the s10 would be more comparable. The 1st gen 3.4 has 190hp and 220lb/ft torque.

 

sick bro
