Looks like you had a good time. But, if you're under warranty you probably don't want to hand GM evidence like that to not cover any future repairs.

Can someone please explain why you can jump your T and come away with no issues, yet I blew the front diff out of mine driving down a paved road?! :huh:

I honestly think there is something special about mine it's really weird maybe the previous owner did something to it. But it does crazy stuff, scared me lol

Looks like fun, hopefully your luck will continue, but any machine subject to abuse is going to break. Is just the nature of pushing the limits.

A quality built, ladder frame car can withstand a lot of crap. For a while.

Looks like fun. But don't be surprised when the fun ends...

But then again, a teen in a $30,000 truck doesn't care.

Exactly what response did you think you were going to get with that title and video? Congrats for beating the crap out of the car? Stock cars won't fly many times before steel fails. It's not luck, it's fatigue.

I've acted like an idiot in a lot of cars. I know what it costs.

It's a free country and I fully support anyone's right to do whatever they want to with their own stuff. I only ask that they video it. Without that, YouTube wouldn't be nearly as much fun.

Those of us that are motor-heads, car crazy and enthusiast have all done dumb (fun) things with them. I for one, did those fun things. Those of us old enough can remember how cheap we could get muscle cars in the 70's and the crazy things we did with them. I'm glad to see you did it some what responsibly with no one in harms way. We didn't have that much sense street racing in Vegas with crowds of people watching. I guess when we get a little older, we like to think wiser, we are more concerned with your saftey and the money that we see that it COULD cost, that is all we are saying. Your young, have all the fun you want, just be careful!

Glad to see you are enjoying your truck. Just make sure you and those around you are safe, and realize that what you are doing may put a lot of stress on your truck.

Thanks for sharing :)

cool, this one lights up the uninformed





yeah, I pulled out a semi with my hummer... when I was a kid, my dad used to drag race at Lion's (near LA) drag strip. To this day, I'm still amazed at how they kept their vehicles together with such fragile stuff - yet they did.... the same person who kept his stuff together taught me how to do the same thing....

somewhere I have a picture of doing the same kind of pull with my 93 Chev 4x4 truck.

and when I was in college, we used our 4x4s to pull semis over the pass at LaGrande, Oregon - it was a lucrative business

It's all fun and games but next time you play tug with H1 make sure that this will not happen to your T

Well when I went out with cdarveaux, frumaker, sickstring, ect last year or so I was the boring one afraid to do any of their fun stuff. But little did you guys know that when I was 16 (longer ago then I will mention), I had a 1981 Chevy Camero that I knew if I went 50 or faster down this one road that I could catch air under my seat at a certain spot. Man it was fun to be a kid! Would I do it now? Nope! But I sure did it then. Good times. Now, I think you're crazy cdarveaux, but back then, I would have been right there behind you!
