I was using my 94 GMC Dooley with the 6.5TD and manual trans to pull bushes. To my suprise, with the truck in 4Lo it would spin all six, yes all 6 tires at a dead idle while sitting on blacktop. I actually dug 6 one inch deep holes in the pavement. I was quite impressed. Just to be clear, I did not have to press the throttle at all to do this. I now have a Duramax with the ZF trans. It doesn't feel as strong at idle. Has anybody tried something like this? Don't get me wrong, I love my Duramax truck, but the low rpm grunt could be better. I'll post my findings, but not too many people need to have landscaping removed on a regular basis.
