Westen Champlin needs cows for his bull, Vanilla. Naturally, he takes the green, lifted Hellcat rather than a pickup.

"Testing The Towing Capacity Of My Offroad Hellcat" has drawn roughly 700,000 views since yesterday, offering something rather different from a measured towing demonstration: an auction trip where the tow vehicle needs a jump-start before it even leaves.

Once moving, Westen sounds pleased with how the Hellcat handles the trailer. Garrett takes care of bidding at the sale barn, buying four bred black cows. "I just won the spend more money contest, so let's leave," he says.

Loading them puts a noticeable squat into the car. Viewers have picked up on the hitch arrangement, with the most-liked comment questioning the lack of a drop hitch before noting what looks like a change for the journey home. Others are welcoming back the off-road Hellcat, naming it alongside the Smokestang as a favorite build.

The return trip supplies the less reassuring part of the test: the dashboard cluster goes dark, and the Hellcat briefly cuts out before restarting. They get the cattle back to the pasture, but this is a working errand with mechanical trouble, not a formal towing-capacity rating. The video also includes a sponsored legal-services segment.

Then Westen moves on to something considerably heavier: inspecting a used Cat excavator, operating it and crushing scrap cars as a functionality test. The ranch's drag strip gets a visit too, with contractors surveying and grading the track.
