My buddy had a mega cab diesel truck tuned up. Had like 1300 ft, lbs of torque and would run in the high 12s wothfromt and rear replacement bumpers.

So much smoke would blow outta it if he got in front of you, you literally couldnt see.



It was cool back in 08 but would be annoying now

I bought one of the very first Ford Lightnings available in 93. I bought through DougStanley Ford when Car And Driver magazine was done testing it. They tested the truck all around the area where I live and even wrote about eating Chicken Fried Steak at the restaurant near by....Rockett Cafe. Those were the days.

Sad thing? My wifes Thunderbird SC, also a 93, would bury my Lightning from a dead stop, roll, highway, any way we tried it. It would P me off so bad! Shed leave me in the dust every time.

They have the incorrect times for the 17'-18' Raptors. The super cabs do 0-60 in 5.2 sec and the crew cabs are 5.3 seconds. Trying to talk mama into a MPT tuner for Christmas. It will knock it down to 4.4 seconds.

My neighbor has a Grand National looks brand new under cover in his shop with low miles on it....

Remember watching some frat boy in College Station bet $1000 one night that my buddy's "little black Buick" couldn't hang with the Saleen Mustang his daddy bought him........then we watched that Grand National cost him $1000....it wasn't even close.....twice!!!

I have the 6.2 Denali and it's fun....but best thing is it's much better on gas than my other Silverado with the 5.3.
Buddy has a Raptor and we've been lucky a few times to NOT get tickets

I have a 2018 F-150 with a 5.0. It runs like a race truck. I've only floor boarded it once but when I did it went from 10 MPH to 80 MPH in a hurry. It's fast and gets 19.6 around town and 23 on the road. I love my truck.

I had a 92 ranger 5 speed in high school. 1st and 2nd gear in that light weight truck was surprisingly quick. A guy in town built a 5 liter super charged ranger and it was quick. Last I herd, he put slicks on it and when he finally hooked up, it twisted his frame.

I had an 82 SWB chevy that had a mildly built 350 in it with a turbo 350 behind it. Top speed was 105, but it got there quickly. I sure miss that thing, though my duramax is much faster, it doesn't have the same feel as hearing that little truck rumble
