Is this correct? I pick it up today, its 2wd extended cab with chrome 20 inch wheels! Is this a rare truck? What should it run in the 1/4 mile?

I bet at a good track/location they run high 14's. It's basically a SS minus the extra weight from the AWD. Those have broke into the 14's stock so I don't see any reason the VHO shouldn't

Right?

I was going to buy an SS until I saw this truck; the dealer told me it’s a rare combo! I love the truck it just needs exhaust and maybe cold air kit!
