pick up trucks

[streethorse]

Why do the common, stock style F-150's, 250's and 350 diesels think
that thier trucks are fast when there not.
I had a 3500 diesel start reving at a light yesterday, so I had to hit it when
the light went green, I was 2 lenghts ahead instantly, and let off.
Have many of you Stangers had F-150's etc try to run you.
It seems here in the Dallas area 1 out of every 2 vehicles is a truck. Even
people who have no reason or use for a truck get them anyway.

Yea I know lol....it seems like there is always some guy in a track that thinks he can take you . I usualy dont waste my time with them though.

There is a diesel truck in our town though that is FAST...I think its faster than my car, but I dont know exactly what it runs.

diesel trucks are nothing to laugh at... w/ a bully dog tune they can be fairly quick. Now if a 4.6 F-150 revs at me, I do get a good chuckle out of that... my stang with a 4.6 can't even break 13s, imagine how slow that pickup is

I get it all the time. Hemi's too. They're actually quite slow.

Trucks always try to race except when I am crusing with the top down, then they just tailgate

 

[DBMSTNG]

it's all full size trucks, not just the Fords. my friend swore up and down that his dads silverado could beat my mustang. it's the low end torque of a V8 and the shorter gearing that make them think the truck is faster that it actually is.

Yup I have had them try and race me. Then I just get on it at the next light and I’m gone. My uncle says his F-250 diesel kills mustangs.

well I dont know what trucks yall are racing, but if you ever end up in baton rouge dont take them cheby's lightly. We have quite a few running in the 12's N/A around here... and flurting with 11's on the gas.

Yeah, I of my coworkers has been braging about how fast his F-250 diesel is. He has had it reprogrammed or something. But on the way to work
last week, about 6am I came up behind him on 3 lane road, I started trailing
him in the left lane, finally he looks in his rear view mirrow, we make eye to
eye contact, then a giant cloud of black diesel smoke comes out of his tail
pipe, ........ I then did a fly-by on the right.......

haha I like your sig "n/a until going FI" club. I never planned on doing this either...just one of those split second desisions I guess....but the N/A club is still here and will continue. Heck I didnt even have a member # . So that doesnt mess you guys up at all.

You know I was actually surprised how many people from the club were getting nitrous or S/Cs....if you find a sweet deal, then you will go for it. There is nothing wrong with N/A or FI....but I didnt want to spend 4Gs at one time and then worry about my engine going. I think we would all still be staying N/A had we not found a good price for FI.

Rangers are awesome >>>>>>>>>

 

[Cantslowdown]

I get all these rednicks with there glass packs and rusted out trucks then there is the 4 banger trucks with flows that try to race..I just dont get it..

haha I know man... I wrote that as a little bit of a shot at you, mostly cuz I'm jealous that you're building a TT setup Trust me, as soon as I have money for a forged rotating assembly, the power adder will be next in line, probably a turbo just like you. Hey are you still planning on a 302BB when your stock shortblock is toast? Thats the route I'm thinking of going, I love the BB concept over the stroker

Hell yeah the N/A Club is still here since I'm the leader now.. since you abandoned us

It was a split second decision huh? It's crazy what stuff can make a person go home and buy a couple of turbos ... Just busting your bawls man!
