Beautiful lesson for rear wheel drive vehicles but what is the concensus on 6ton front wheel drive vehicle front tire sudden loss of air. Any Thoughts or experiences out there.

I would think basicly the same. Though Diesel manual and gas auto with kick down are different. I would gently roll into the throttle so that torque steer doesn't get excessive.

Somebody will hopefully chip in with a link to the GM video of a coach driving when the front tire blows out. Looks pretty stable, but I don’t want to do it for myself!
