My Toyota Is Disgraced

[Sparkplug]

First off, im a die hard toyota fan. I love all toyotas, from cars, to trucks, to the forklifts. I love em. They are the best small pickup in the world, or so I thought. The other day my buddy got a pud ass nissan 4x4. Piece o' junk. 31 inch street tires, no lift, mods, lockers, nothin. Well he was talkin mad crap bout my yota. Mines got 31 mt's, sorta pumped 22r (cam of some sort, and maybe valves), and a rear locker. i told him my yota would drag his across the ground. Well, we hooked up, he cheated the first pull, and just started yanking, so of course he dragged the hell out of me. Well we tried the second time all legit, and he STILL pulled me. Not a little bit, he dragged the HELL out of my toyota, his clutch was dumpin smoke out, and my yota was still hopping backwards. Im disgraced and just wanted to vent, im at a loss of words. The video will be on youtube in a few days, and I will post a link to it.

Mass........

The heavier vehicle will have more traction.

lol, maybe i should have smoked MY clutch.....

[REG535]

i thought toys were heavier? also go ahead to head on a mud bog or hill climb thats when it really counts and not that dumb pulling stuff.

All I have to say is what a retarded way to determine which vehicle is actually better!!!! Get it on a trail.. on some rocks.. then see!

[Sparkplug]

I know the pulls r lame, well they are fun to watch, but I was still positive that my truck was going to DRAG his, so was my other buddy that drives a 92. We were both shocked.

Well if it makes you feel any better my 85 toyota 22r when it was stock on 31 inch tires pulled a lifted 02 Ford F-250 7.2L Diesel out of a ditch. I still give him !!

Weight over driven wheels...............  Maybe 4wd vs 2wd

A buddy I used to wheel with had an early 90s Nissan 4 banger.  That thing had BALLS compared to my 22re with a cam , header etc...  He could smoke me amywhere in high range.  However, every time he followed me on a trail ride his steering puked.  Finally after multiple center link replacements he just quit wheeling the thing.

I bet he cheated & stuck in in 4 lo. Tell him you tweaked the motor a bit & challenge him to a re-match. Stick it in 4 lo but don't lock the front hubs

You didn't say if his was a truck too or a Pathfinder. (Weight over the rear tires) And yes Nissan's have way more HP than a Yota, thats part of Nissan's selling tactics.

Like said before give him a real test take him on a trail and woop his arse.

Exactly.  ....And if it was done on pavement the vehicle with the street tires will have more traction because they have a bigger contact patch than off road tires because of the tread void.

Tell him your Toyota is an off road truck, not a tow truck.   If you have a locker you should whip his ass off road.   Tell him to go wheeling with you.  Have him lead and you follow.  go anywhere he wants and when he gets stuck you will pull him out of the way and then drive right through where he got stuck.

[MC387]

It is probably his wasted clutch that allowed him to win.  As soon as your tires start to spin, your done.  Maybe his clutch was slipping so much that he did not break traction.   Next time, stand on the brakes at first.  When his tires break traction, then slowly apply power, dont just drop the clutch.  But then again, I would not challenge him to another pull off.  Maybe just go wheeling, if he shows you up on the trail, it just means he is a better driver, not a better truck.

I agree your toyota is disgraced... By the driver, running your mouth sure worked out for ya didn't it?

[Rocksurfer]

Pulling is all in how you do it, I remember one time my brother and I came across an IH Scout II mired in the mud in the creek behind the Little Rock Dam. A fullsize Ford tried to pull it out and broke a motor mount, a fullsize brand new chevy tried and blew his trans. My brother and I offered to give it a shot in our little Toyota's and got some healthy laughter from the crowd. We then told them we'd pull it up over the bank instead of back out the way it came, they laughed even louder. The guy in the IH was drowning in the mud and didn't care and told us to give it a shot. Ten minutes later he was sitting on dry land.

Hooking bumpers never really proves anything at all.... There are too many variables that could give one an advantage over the other...

[emilyjordan]

Sorry to hear about your truck.  Are there any kind of truck accessories you can add on to give some more torque or power?  You ever considered a turbo kit?

[Halladay]

hahaha i dont understand why you choose a pull of for seeing whos truck is "better" haha im not trying to rag on you but its hust funny..... all though i have done it once with a buddy in a huge mud pit just for fun..... good thing both rigs were toyota's! lol 

[Sparkplug]

I didnt say mine was better, i merely thought because I have good tires, more weight, and a rear locker, that my toyota would pull his nissan.
