Try pushing your Xterra up a hill in neutral and then come back and ask again.[/b]
In the scenario you're describing, you're pushing vertically, not horizontally...[/b]
Fine. Try pushing your Xterra on level ground and then ponder what weight has to do with forward motion. The force of gravity must be overcome to move an object, whether it's up, down, forward, back, or sideways.
