I think he's exceeding his tow rating.

My first impression was that he must have killed his clutch, but no actually.  It was slick enough that the wheel-spin took the stress out of the drive-line and gave the semi just enough help to get moving again.

Awesome! :clap:

I didn't actually give that tip, btw. :lol:

It appears the truck just needed alittle nudge.

About equal to 15 guys pushing from behind is all it would have taken, i imagine the subie was in front or a few cars in front when the truck got hung up(you can see alot of backed up trafic behind the truck).

Yea if it was dry something would have broken. Also I don't think that was an STi, just a regular wricks. Still a pretty cool vid though.

Truck wasn't even stuck. Like FBC said, some guys pushing would have done the job.

1) Subaru owns. Show some respect.

2) Nice v7 STi.
2. 1995 Saturn SL2 5-speed, 126,500 miles. 5,000 miles in two and a half months. That works out to 24,000 miles per year if I can keep up the pace.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

She'll hate diesel passenger cars, all things Ford, and fiat currency.  They will masturbate to old interviews of Ayn Rand an youtube together.
You can take the troll out of the Subaru, but you can't take the Subaru out of the troll!
