Should have been farther, but still very impressive

They should have put the truck up against a Dodge or Chevy

No kidding 100k is a chitload, they see juiced up trucks pull sleds at the county fair and think its easy.
You would have to be in granny low with the rears locked to get that loader rolling in dirt with a 550 cat.

I thought hydrostat would have kept them from moving even in "nuetral"? I hooked my truck up to our bobcat s160 and couldnt move the damn thing an inch and look at these big boys
