the rolling weight of say 12 tonnes is not actualy pulling 12 tonnes ! like yer can push a landrover along the road quite easily, but yer cant push say 3 tonne bags of road stone !

i have pulled things with my 2.5n/a that have made my eyes water , its all about gears and attitude, put yer foot down and yer askin fer **** and smoke , nice tickover, low 1st away yer go,

Ever watched "world's strongest man" on the TV? The hardest bit is getting it moving. Once rolling its relatively easy to keep it moving.
