Although temperatures have increased the past few days, some Americans won’t forget the freezing cold and huge amounts of snow they had to cope with earlier this year. And the semi truck driver you’re about to see below is one of them.
Weighing about 122,000 pounds (that’s 55,300 kg!), his semi is no ordinary tanker. Unfortunately, he found that out on his own after driving the cab into an unplowed area with about six inches of snow. He was in for a very miserable day when a Dodge Dakota driver showed up to give a hand.

Although it’s not the type of vehicle you’d expect to see pull a huge semi truck out of the snow, the 2000 model year V8-powered pickup managed to save the day after only two attempts. Watch the video after the jump.
