Lifted F-350 Dually Yanks Toyota Tundra Out of the Muck
This dually uses all of its pulling power to free the Tundra…and gives it the most violent mud bath ever in the process.
Have you ever been stuck in traffic on a divided highway, looked out your window at the wide grassy median, and fantasized about tearing across it in your truck? Of course you have. We’ve all had that day dream – and not just because it would get us to where we need to go more quickly. We’d also want to do it just because it would be so much fun. But there’s a potential danger to actually doing that (aside from getting a ticket). You could get stuck in mud hidden under the surface and need someone to pull you out of it, which is exactly what happened to the driver of a 2019 Toyota Tundra in this Beau Knows YouTube video. Luckily, the owner of a 2018 Ford F-350 dually was there to rescue them.
The footage starts with the F-350 smack dab in the middle of the grass backing up to where it’ll be able to yank the Tundra to freedom.
It has a long way to go and the conditions don’t make the trip any shorter. As dry as the ground may appear, it’s soft and moist under the surface. The Super Duty quickly begins slipping and sliding on the mud.
After coming to a stop, the Ford owner shifts into drive and guns the massive 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbodiesel V8, sending up a massive dark cloud of exhaust smoke and a chunky spray of earth. They do the exact same thing after they shift back into reverse and charge toward the disabled Toyota. By the time the Ford driver brings their truck to a stop, its front end and most of its sides are spattered with brown that fired out of the trenches the F-350’s tires dug into the ground. The Tundra has its share of muck on it, but that’s nothing compared to what it’s going to get.
Once the front end of the Tundra is strapped to the F-350’s tow hitch, the Super Duty starts pulling. It’s slow going at first, especially because the Tundra driver doesn’t – or perhaps can’t (maybe their trip into the mud broke a vital steering component) – keep their front wheels pointed straight. It doesn’t really matter because it doesn’t stop the F-350. It just keeps roaring ahead, its 40-inch tires flinging up brown gunk onto the Tundra’s grille and hood.
Instead of immediately cutting up and to the right, the Ford driver decides to go the exact opposite way they got to the Toyota. It’s a much harder and messier route. Maybe they did it on purpose to have a little fun with the Tundra and take the satisfaction of covering it in filth as unofficial payment for their services.
The dually driver keeps the hammer down and continues dragging the Tundra until they finally decide it’s time to get to the pavement. Both trucks are yards and yards away from the camera when they turn toward the road, but even then, it’s easy to see that the Tundra is more brown than white. But a little dirt never hurt a truck. We’re not so sure the Tundra’s windshield survived the journey, though. It was getting absolutely pelted with everything that happened to come under the F-350’s four meaty rear tires as it conducted its rescue mission.
