Video of RC 18 wheeler pulling weight.
 
I found the video with a big rig pulling a full grown man around.

Wow, how much weight can these things pull?
I'm surprised the tires weren't compressing more.

Hi Losiassociated,

I guess that one way to get a new drive train for a truck !!!! looks like it was struggling with that weight

Cheers Cossett

I always wondered how much weight one of these trucks can pull. Wouldn't want to try it with mine though. Wouldn't the weight be a strain on the 5th wheel and the suspension?

He must have modified some things. The trailer didn't look like it had a load on at all, from the suspension to the tires. The rear suspension of the truck too should have bottomed out lowering the back of the truck. He must have an aluminum/metal 5th wheel, I can't see the plastic holding up to that strain.

That's my thoughts, but what do I know, I don't have a truck or even seen one lol.
