The RL doing some Heavy Pulling

We use the RL as a backup Rescue Vehical...

Pulling a VW with 4 flat tires and a snapped ball joint onto a trailer:


Its also sucessfully pulled the flatbed Nissan Frontier out of a ditch(but as an interesting side note-the Nissan could NOT pull the RL out of the same ditch!) But no pics as I was driving...

Well the Redline does have the tranny out of a SAAB that is designed for pulling small trailers so it shouldn't surprise anyone.
