its not bad... picked it up today and tried to smoke 'em down leaving the dealership.... damn traction control. this thing needs a tune something terrible... good thing Ive got some credits left on HPT sitting at the house Ive got some 110 in the shop that needs to be used up. the wideband and some of the other guages will be taken out of the truck and put in the new baby hot rod

Id imagine with an intake/fart can/tuning id be in the 13s

-it going to be weird letting air out of the FRONT tires at the track

oh no


i tried the little car before (svt focus) and it was a huge mistake. everyone of my friends and girls i knew laughed and made fun of me until i came to my senses and got rid of it 2 months latter. being in a full size truck is just sooo much better in every single way (except gas mileage)

Probably would've went with a G8 GT or 5.3L Colorado myself but the turbo 'Balts aren't too bad I don't guess..
