Default Silly Explorer top end is for Burbans

So my truck is slow and I know it is . But it's ok cause I don't go around pickin fights that I "KNOW" I will lose . But for some people these things don't click . Anywaym, I'm comming home from steak-n-shake the other day minding my own buisness. When all of a sudden I see something commin up on me and it's moving pretty fast. Me being the trouble maker that I am glady hammered it as soon as he got to about my rear quarter panel.(the next few lines should make you fall on the floor laughing) After hearing the truck growl and the front end raise(as if I was even going anywhere) it took off I was surprised it actually shifted into 3rd with soundin like it was gonna blowup. The explorer on the other hand had me by bout a nose till my truck at last minute decided to shift into 4th or (OverDrive) and walked the guy by bout a car.Either that or his foot slipped off the peddle..... ...anyways shutdown at bout 75(no traffic once so ever,thank god) and as soon as we came down to the speed limit IRONICLY there where cops seeting up a speed trap on the other side of the road...I just kinda chuckled and went on my way home .
