    Videos of Ukrainians towing Russian vehicles away like they’re being repossessed are probably my favorite.

    They’re putting the other tanks transmission and engine through hell with that

        That’s not what I meant.

        From what I know the T-series tanks are underpowered and dragging along another tank with the same weight puts a serious strain on the engine.

        I might be wrong though.

        No. It’s not neutral like a car. The transmission is still engaged, thus cranking the pistons up and down in the engine. With no oil flow from the systems, it’s not very friendly to the metal bits inside. Lol
