Default What does it take to pull a train?

That's a no-brainer! This was on the GMC Trucks Facebook page this morning. Thought you folks may get a kick out of it.

Ha ha! Dragging a train with an "obsolete boatanchor" V6. Chew on that one Chevvy.
I bet that truck is still running somewhere, maybe in the same job.

Hey wait a second, those are newer cars in the background on the right. This pic wasn't taken all that long ago!

Yeah there was little info with the pic, but I'm pretty confident it isn't a real old pic.

Thanks for the replies, guys!---DAC

If a Toyota can pull the Space Shuttle, a GMC sure ought to be able to pull a train!
