Just like arm wrestling, tug of war duels between cars serve the same purpose: to show overly competitive men that they are more powerful than their opponents. This type of battles can go spectacularly wrong some times, but no matter the outcome, they always seem to entertain spectators.

The following tug of war includes two rather different machines: in the left corner we have a Land Rover Defender 90 powered by a 3.0-liter diesel engine, while in the right corner, there’s a massive previous-generation Ram pickup truck powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins diesel unit.

The clash is rather interesting because the Defender is four-wheel drive, whereas the Ram looks like its rear-wheel drive – either that, or the driver didn’t engage 4WD on purpose. Even so, the fight seems balanced at first, but shortly after that one of the cars loses clearly. Find out which one from the video posted below.
