Man, I had to look hard and pay some money down to have my $275 truck payment. I envy you guys with brand new f250's or brand new f150's. I settled for a used, one owner f150, with few options. It will tow what I need it to tow and has room for the family. It's all I really "need".

It's funny how people treat cars and money. If a person invested $60k in the stock market and 3 years later is was only worth 20k they'd be very upset. Same person buys a new vehicle at $60k + interest and 3 years later it's worth $20k (or less) and they're ok with that and possibly looking to trade back in for another new vehicle to repeat the cycle? Crazy.

Which is why my 08 model truck will stay in my driveway at least 5 more years, if not 10. Imagine this, i bought that stupid thing in oct of 07. Then the stock market crashed. 6 months later I could've bought the same truck for 10k less. I was SICK! Now, i have to keep it.
Yep and 0% interest and the car salesmans daughter came with it for a complimentary chistening.
In likeness I'll respond...
I have a '14 Grand Cherokee hemi bla bla...
If some guy I worked with had a S-10 Blazer with blown 350 I'm not going to race him.
Everyone that knows the answer to 2+2 is apprised the outcome.
I have whopped on newer cars, and I run with stock heads... N/A... and I expect the outcome... and have not gloated.
I look forward to the day of running a like build... say a healthy 340 Dart/327 Camaro/SS Monte...
Picking on new gen stockers is not my thing as I do not consider it competition, and certainly would not consider it to be so with a blower saddled up.

Kind of my point^^
Who gives a ratz if it's a new car/old car, blower saddled up or big cube n/a? If you just want to pull it out of the garage to idle into a parking lot full of people to show it off instead of using it for what it's built for... Why even have it?

Where Ford found inspiration for the front end design:If money wasn't an object...........this
I would even put it in the Garage. Id park it in the driveway so everybody could see it. And I wouldn't give one rat's red ass that it only made 600 HP, and was made out of aluminum, and carbon fiber.
As long as they got their rent c

I don't really race anybody in my fox, it's too loud everyone can hear you coming. I have a 13' SHO that gets beat WAY more than the fox.. That thing weighs 4500lbs but runs a 12.9@107 with just a tune and a k&n filter. Had a guy laugh at me in a mid 2000's corvette automatic when I asked him if he wanted to race. Prob would have been a close race. Only time I find cars to mess with the kids or wife is with me, plus most people don't know what an SHO is.

Upgraded turbos, downpipes, possibly an extra fuel pump, tune... There is 1 guy I know of that ran 11.9 on stock turbos... Fuel pump in these cars can't keep up
