I took one 3 times one time. He was a really nice guy and complimented me on my car afterward. It was kind of a shocker to me

Those are fast, in fact, fastest for a truck. They do low to mid 13s with trap of about 106mph. You'd really need to be boosted to beat one. But tell him, it's nothing special. Put enough power in a tank and it'll be fast. Simple physics! He can outdo you in a straightline, but you'll massacre him in turns and corners. Each car, different purpose.

My boy has one, but won't run me knowing I have boost. If I didn't, I think he would take me also.

That is the only truck I would ever own though.

they're not too shabby stock, but just like any other forced induction vehicle...very easy to get more power. don't underestimate any of them you come across. a vast majority of them are pullied/tuned in the very least.


truck aren't the old lumber hauling, slow as molasses vehicles they used to be

case in point:

10.65 silverado

same truck...twin snails. guess he got bored

just a couple quick videos. you've probably seen them, pretty famous truck. just do some searches for "parish" on any fast truck bored lol

you can make ANYTHING fast with the right amount of money, that silverado is a 1 of 100's of thousands. none of us will ever encounter a truck like that on the street.

I think at higher speeds the S would out run one due to the fact that truck aerodynamics suck.
